Bruce Wood Dance Dallas will conclude its 16th season with IGNITE, a contemporary dance program combining choreography, projection design, and visual art. Performances will take place June 12–14 at Moody Performance Hall in the Dallas Arts District.
The program includes three works by contemporary choreographers and artists, including the world premiere of MOVE by Artistic Director Joy Bollinger. Created in collaboration with visual artist JM Rizzi and projection designer Courtney Ware, the piece combines multimedia visuals with a score by Levi.Sct blending classical piano, hip-hop, and techno influences.
“With MOVE, audiences can expect an experience that is exciting, dynamic, and fresh,” Bollinger said in a statement. “We want to capture that electric moment when different worlds meet.”
The evening will also feature the Dallas premiere of To Familiar Spaces in Dream by Jessica Lang. The work joins the company repertoire following Lang’s internationally recognized choreography for companies including American Ballet Theatre, The Royal Ballet, and Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater.
Rounding out the program is Bruce Wood’s Zero Hour, set to tangos by Astor Piazzolla and Lalo Schifrin. The work remains one of the company’s signature repertory pieces.
