Camaraderie
An honest day's toil shared with comrades, echoing Gustave Caillebotte's painting "The Floor Scrapers" (1875) and set to a Napoleonic marching tune that the original floor scrapers might have sung as they worked
Pavane for Three
Three dancers intertwine and find their connections to the earth and to one another in this extrapolation from the formal court dance, based on Barbara Hepworth's "Forms in Movement (Pavan)" (1956), which itself was inspired by musical and dance forms
Seasons of Distance
Celebrating the changing face of nature, at a time of distance from other people
Tempus Fugit
Classically beautiful meditation on time, encompassing "Du Temps Perdu," an elegaic slow movement in which the dancers investigate their relationships with a shared past, and "Movement in Present Tense," a lively celebration of making the most of the time we have. Named one of the "Top 5 Emotional Dance Moments 2011" by Bay Area Dance Watch. For my father.
