  3. 2012 Spring Dance Concert


Highlighted by professional choreography by Kristen Daley, Nancy Lyons, Scott Wells and Christine Cali, featuring new music by Jesse Olsen Bay and showcasing 30 dancers - the 2012 Spring Dance Concert will feature four contemporary, physical, athletic and humorous dance works as it explores the pleasure of dance; rituals and desire; human connections; and the technological state of being.

"Moe's Art," By Scott Wells.* Featuring music from Mozart, Smashing Pumpkins and "Amadeus," this dance piece explores speech and deconstruction; games and structured improvisation; chance dances and choreography and expresses dancing for the pleasure of dancing it and watching it.

"Kindle a Home Fire" By Nancy Lyons. Working with a collage of contemporary accordion music, cello and traditional Balinese chanting, "Kindle a Home Fire" explores ritual in our lives; the deep desire to be part of the pack; and how dancing continues to inspire the creation of tribes.

"face to FACE" By Kristen Daley. This dance piece asks "Connecting and re-connecting and staying connected through various virtual sites, are our lives more fulfilled…or less?" Then demonstrates through dance the need, desire and craving for physical contact...an embrace, a handshake, a hug and breath. Featuring new music by Jesse Olsen Bay.

"C.O.M.A." By Christine Cali.** This dance work examines the current technological phenomenon: Plugged into a technological state of being, unplugged from ourselves and each other, what happens next? Is it human experience or artificial existence? "C.O.M.A" considers "How do we evolve from here?"

New Dances by Christine Cali, Kristen Daley, Nancy Lyons and Scott Wells.
