New Works Concert

The 940 Dance Company will perform their final concert of the season on Friday, April 30th and Saturday, May 1st at 7:30 pm at the Lawrence Arts Center Theater, 940 New Hampshire.

The concert will be a collection of choreography from Artistic Director Susan Rieger; guest artists E.E. Balcos and Cathy Patterson and company members Bobbi Foudree, Jennifer Flynn and Eric Tedder.

Rieger will present Interior Landscapes, a collaboration with artist Andrea Fuhrman. Fuhrman’s digital images of train graffiti will be projected onto the dance floor and appear as richly textured worlds which the five dancers traverse. Rieger will also present an as yet untitled work inspired by the company’s work with wind and wind energy and funded by the Elizabeth Schultz Environmental Fund. And the program will include Disability Romp (2005), a darkly humorous look at mental health, with a witty script by Frankie Krainz and sound design by Seth Golan.

E.E. Balcos, an accomplished choreographer from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, will present his duet Fast Forward/Rewind. Cathy Patterson’s emotional solo, The Widow’s Chair, will be performed by Ashley Trullinger. The choreography by company members is in progress and details will be announced at the beginning of April.
