Cleveland, OH/--MorrisonDance invites you to enjoy a ONE NIGHT ONLY 
performance celebrating 15 seasons of dance. On Saturday, May 4^th at 7 
pm at PlayhouseSquare's Ohio Theatre, one of Cleveland's very own dance 
companies will share a selection of favorites from over 50 original 
pieces of choreography.The show will include Morrison's "Tray 
Magnifique," an imaginative tribute to the service industry where 
dancers convert trays into mirrors, dragonflies, limousines and drum 
kits; "Radke's Melancholy Chromosomes," provides an ethereal 
interpretation of the captivating imagery from the mind of 
internationally recognized artist *Scott Radke*; "Union" is a 
kaleidoscopic duet; and "Inundation," is a colorful and vibrant romp 
choreographed by former company member *Maree ReMalia* (Pittsburgh, PA).

The evening will also premiere a collaborative piece by the company of 
dancers exploring the quirks and rhythms of neighborhoods with music by 
the multilayered *Trepanning Trio*.Several other short dances will take 
you all over the map with themes of Greek mythology, human intertwining, 
and humorous introspection.

The program will come to life bathed in the magical lighting of *Trad A 
Burns* and danced by performers who represent a diverse background of 
movement training including modern, ballet, jazz, capoeira, physical 
theater, and yoga.Performers are *Taliesin Reid Haugh, Kevin D. Marr II, 
Carli Taylor Miluk, Sarah Morrison, Bethany Nesta, and Kalindi Stockton.*

MorrisonDance has been featured regularly at the Cleveland Public 
Theatre, Ingenuity Cleveland, and throughout the Midwest in their annual 
summer series "The City is Our Playground".The contemporary dance 
company has also been selected for multiple appearances in the 
DanceNow/NYC series at the Joyce SoHo (NY) and Joe's Pub at Public 
Theater (NY).

Director and choreographer, *Sarah Morrison*, is a 2009 recipient of the 
Ohio Arts Council Individual Excellence Award.She was brought to 
Cleveland from her hometown of Atlanta, GA as a student in 1992 when she 
was awarded a Creative Achievement Award Scholarship for her 
choreography from Case Western Reserve University.Her dances have been 
called "zany" and "endearing" by /Plain Dealer /critic Donald Rosenberg, 
and her company delivers "unique moving art" according to Tom Mulready 
of/Cool Cleveland./

MorrisonDance's 15th anniversary season performance is supported in part 
by the residents of Cuyahoga County through a public grant from Cuyahoga
