SUMMARY:RUBBERBAND "Ever So Slightly" (Tempe)
DESCRIPTION:RUBBERBAND is back\, with ten dancer-athletes in top form. Ever So Slightly explores the behavioral mechanisms and reflexes we develop against the ceaseless flow of irritants that bombard us in our daily lives. Most of us long for calm and resilience\, but how do we get to a zone where noise and aggressivity no longer have a place? Simultaneously delivering delicacy\, brutality\, finesse\, and high-voltage action\, the choreographer conveys all the energy contained in urgency\, revolt\, chaos\, and flight. \nVictor Quijada’s RUBBERBAND is back\, with ten dancer-athletes in top form. Ever So Slightly explores the behavioural mechanisms and reflexes we develop against the ceaseless flow of irritants that bombard us in our daily lives. Most of us long for calm and resilience\, but how do we get to a zone where noise and aggressivity no longer have a place? Simultaneously delivering delicacy\, brutality\, finesse\, and high-voltage action\, the choreographer conveys all the energy contained in urgency\, revolt\, chaos\, and flight. \nThe premiere of Ever So Slightly took place in December 2018 at Théâtre Maisonneuve of Place des Arts\, in Montreal. \nEver So Slightly is a coproduction of RUBBERBAND\, Danse Danse\, Société de la Place des Arts de Montréal\, Théâtre Hector-Charland and Global Arts Live.

SUMMARY:Ballet Hispánico
DESCRIPTION:Bizet’s Carmen has seen countless interpretations over the past 150 years\, but never one like this! Acclaimed choreographer Gustavo Ramírez Sansano brings this full-length ballet to the stage\, inspired by tauromaquia—the art of bullfighting—breathing a modern life into the legendary opera character through Ballet Hispánico’s electrifying CARMEN.maquia. Carmen has become a cultural icon\, inspiring generations of composers\, choreographers\, and writers to attempt to capture her elusive and alluring nature. One of today’s most sought-after choreographers\, Sansano’s quintessential ballet invigorates this timeless tale with an unrelenting energy that leaves you breathless. Highly original and full of explosive movement\, CARMEN.maquia is a bold reimagining of this classic story. \nJoin us for a post-show discussion following the performance. \n“Ramírez’s movement is refreshingly unique. … Ballet Hispanico’s ensemble plays many parts and maneuvers through humorous and nuanced moments with ease and clarity.” — Broadway World \nAbout the Company \nBallet Hispánico was founded on the principle that everyone deserves dance\, quality dance training\, and innovative performances. In creating the company in 1970\, Tina Ramirez shattered a glass ceiling—challenging iconic representations and exposing the joy and celebration to be found in Latinidad. Today\, as the largest Latino cultural organization in the United States\, Ballet Hispánico brings together communities to celebrate the ever growing and multifaceted Hispanic diasporas. Ballet Hispánico’s New York City headquarters provide the space and cultural heart for Latinx dance in the United States. The company engages audiences with the work of Latino and Latina choreographers\, opens a platform for new cultural dialogue\, and nurtures inspiring young dancers of all ages. Ballet Hispánico is committed nurturing artists\, teachers\, students\, arts leaders\, families\, and communities through the power of dance. The company has performed at Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts multiple times. We’re proud to welcome Ballet Hispánico back for our 50th anniversary season. \n“Ballet Hispanico dances with elegance and lyricism.” — The Washington Post \nCredits \nNew York Premiere: November 22\, 2014\, at The Apollo Theater \nChoreography by Gustavo Ramírez Sansano \nMusic from Various Works by Georges Bizet\, performed by the Slovak Philharmonic\, Praha Philharmonic\, New Zealand Symphony\, and National Symphony Orchestras\, and by the Arte Ensemble. Carmen Fantasy\, by Pablo de Sarasate\, performed by the Apollo Symphony Orchestra \nSet Design and Construction by Luis Crespo \nCostume Design by David Delfín \nCostume Construction by Travis Halsey\, Diana Ruettiger \nLighting Design by Emilio Lavarías

SUMMARY:Dance West Festival (Peoria)
DESCRIPTION:Dance West Festival \n\n\nThe Dance West Festival began in 2015 when Artistic Director Rachel Wight of Wight Noise Dance Company envisioned a collaborative platform where Arizona’s dance voices could converge\, connect\, and shine alongside companies from across the Western United States. It started as a regional gathering to showcase contemporary artistry and provide community-based performance opportunities has since grown into an annual tradition that celebrates diversity\, storytelling\, and the shared language of movement. \nHosted this year at the Peoria Performing Arts Center in collaboration with TheaterWorks\,  and made possible by support from the City of Peoria Arts and Cultural Grant\, the Festival provides a professional venue with full theatrical support\, offering artists a stage that elevates their work and audiences an opportunity to experience the richness of modern and contemporary dance in the West. From its earliest years\, the Festival has been dedicated to supporting local companies while welcoming guest artists from neighboring states\, expanding its reach and impact year after year. \nAs the Festival approaches its 10th Anniversary in 2026\, Wight Noise Dance Company and its dedicated board remain committed to carrying forward its founding mission: to amplify artistic voices\, nurture collaboration\, and highlight the breadth of choreographic talent in our region. \nWe invite you—whether as an artist\, supporter\, or audience member—to join us each January in Arizona for this celebration of dance as an art form. Applications open each spring\, and performances promise innovation\, passion\, and a wide range of styles and disciplines. As one attendee reflected\, “Dance West offers more than performance—it offers a vibrant conversation in motion.” \nINFO: https://www.wightnoisedancecompany.com/about-4
