works in DanceWorks 09 at CPT. Silent Witness, developed and choreographed by
Artistic Director, Denise Gula, is a multimedia theatrical work revealing the
darkness of the human soul. Inspired by the disturbing and poignant images of
Genesis House's Silent Witness exhibit, a display that identifies and honors
victims of domestic violence, the work in progress serves as a moving tribute
to the victims while bringing attention to this serious social problem.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

final weekend of DanceWorks with a premiere performance of <i><span
style='font-style:italic'>Coloring Pages</span></i> along with additional
repertory works. Unique to OWDC's approach to painting the stage with dance are
the inspirations drawn from Asian movement forms. With each new work the
company presents lively movement and curious characters in rich, picture book
environments. In <i><span style='font-style:italic'>Coloring Pages</span></i>,
director Tammy Metz Starr allows the concept of saturation to guide her visual
and visceral choices. She presents four distinct solo characters in four vivid
seasonal surroundings developed in collaboration with sculptor Greg Mueller,
visual artist Alexa Rittichier, composer David Harnish, playwright Sean T.C.
O'Malley and the dancers. Each character stops, sits, and absorbs a condensed
moment along the life-cycle in playful, sometimes whimsical, often poignant
reflection.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
