Founded in 2005 by Andrew Palermo and Taye Diggs, dre.dance (pictured) has garnered praise from publications including The New York Times, which has called its style a mix of “high energy, deliberate athletic gesture and checked power.” They have since presented six full-length NYC seasons, with performances and residencies around the country. dre.dance will offer the company premiere of a movement-theatre interpretation of NPR/Radiolab’s beloved story, “Goat On A Cow.” The company will also perform excerpts of their most recent piece, “dre.diohead,” and repertoire pieces.
Since its birth in 1988, White Wave Young Soon Kim Dance Company has demonstrated the artistic dexterity and tenacity vital to a NY-based modern dance company. Committed to the creation and expression of the union between the natural rhythm of the planet and the primal essence of the human spirit, Elizabeth Zimmer wrote in Dance Magazine. “Stunning performers, passionate dancing… Kim’s choreography is highly charged.” The company will be performing “So Long for Now,” a dynamic collaboration with composers Sam Crawford and Zeb Gould. That forges a new artistic path exploring the body’s limitless capacity for expression.
Also, a Master Class: Director of Germaul Barnes/Viewsic Expressions Dance gives a fun, high energy contemporary modern dance class fusing a broad range of movements: athletic, gestural and theatrical.
