The Elevator Project 2017 culminates with The Danielle Georgiou Dance Group (DGDG): Donkey Beach. The ELEVATOR PROJECT 2017 season is supported by TACA and Texas Commission on the Arts.

The Danielle Georgiou Dance Group (DGDG), was founded in 2011 by Danielle Georgiou, and is a dance theatre company that works within the ideas of contemporary dance and physical theater. DGDG's work reflects Georgiou's interest in social and psychological issues, and in creating compelling images of a "new female." The works break with the tradition of contemporary dance and tend to be more conceptual or narrative-driven. Whether collaborating or defining her own work, Georgiou looks for performers that constantly strive to transform themselves, either in image or skill. Technique is your foundation - not your identity.

The Danielle Georgiou Dance Group (DGDG) was selected as Best Dance Company for 2016 by the readers of D Magazine, and was named 2015's Best Dance Troupe by the Dallas Observer. The Show About Men (2015) was named Best New Play or Musical and cited for Outstanding Creative Contribution for Choreography by the Dallas Fort Worth Theater Critics Forum Awards. NICE (2014), which premiered at the Dee and Charles Wyly Theatre for the AT&T Performing Arts Center's Elevator Project, also won for Choreography.
