MegLouise Dance presents Outside the Lines
April 1 - April 4
James Levin Theatre

MegLouise Dance kicks off its fifth season with a collection of new works by artistic director Megan Pitcher and associate Sara Whale, as performed by a nine member cast. The group is known for their innovative approach to movement and this production is no exception. It delivers an evening of emotionally charged dancing and thought provoking narrative.

Outside the Lines is a response to the seemingly harmless social systems that perpetuate a tendency toward disconnection, apathy and distraction. The artists of MegLouise Dance construct a vigorous defense against such trends and advocate for a life filled with interaction, experiences and free thinking. They take inspiration from the writings of Emily Dickinson, Stephen Dunn, Mary Oliver and others as they reclaim the flawed, but wonderful surprises of living.

MorrisonDance presents Mysterious
April 15 - April 18
Gordon Square Theatre

MorrisonDance will take you through several worlds of ancient mystery: real, interpreted, and imagined. Mysterious will feature dances celebrating the vibrancy of the Etruscans, the heart and soul of Roma dancing, the quirky possibilities of imagined cone creatures, and the uninhibited passion of communicating through movement. It matters not whether you are a die-hard MorrisonDance fan or a newbie to their idiosyncratic explorations - this collection of shorter works featuring different artists will hold something for every taste.

Antaeus Dance presents prospect and refuge
Travesty Dance Group presents Dawning
April 15 - April 18
James Levin Theatre

Antaeus Dance presents prospect and refuge
How do we reconcile the infinite - prospect - with the intimate - refuge? Antaeus Dance Director Joan Meggitt and performer Doug Lodge share premiere excerpts from their new evening-length dancework, exploring how the individual and the community function, both as discreet elements and in confluence. The performance will feature new music by composer Bill Sallak and original film by artist Cynthia Penter.

Travesty Dance Group presents Dawning
Dawning is a 50-minute contemporary dance/theatre project conceived and choreographed by Travesty Dance Group's Cleveland Director Kimberly Karpanty. "Dawn" refers to a time of morning before the sun appears at the horizon and is used throughout the work as a metaphor for the awakening of the individual and of a community. Dawning incorporates two short films and poetry by Henry Vaughan and Randy Guilhas.
