THE DANCE SERIES 3-SHOW PACKAGE
	GARTH FAGAN DANCE Saturday, Feb. 9, 2013 Garth Fagan Dance is “unfailingly original” according to The New York Times, which also named the Company’s piece, Mudan 175/39, third of the top six dance watching moments of 2009. Tony award-winning choreographer Garth Fagan’s dancers communicate with energy the depth, precision and grace of his work. Fagan’s ever-evolving dance language draws on many sources: sense of weight in modern dance, torso-centered movement and energy of Afro-Caribbean, speed and precision of ballet, and the rule-breaking experimentation of the post-moderns.
	MOMIX: BOTANICA Tuesday, April 9, 2013 Always an audience favorite, MOMIX defies categorization as easily as its dancers defy gravity. Mesmerizing, magical and imaginative, MOMIX spellbinds audiences across the globe. Since debuting in Italy last winter, Botanica, MOMIX’s newest creation, has played to packed houses and rave reviews around the world. Like other MOMIX creations, Botanica creates a magical and ethereal world. MOMIX dancer-illusionists conjure a world of surrealistic images using light, shadow, props, humor and the human body.
	LES BALLETS TROCKADERO DE MONTE CARLO "The Trocks" Tuesday, May 21, 2013 Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo is a dance troupe of all male ballerinas (aka mallerinas) who poke fun at the stuffy traditions of ballet and add a touch of drag to the mix. The Dying Swan gets replaced by the funky chicken, and movements of grace and poise are aped by muscled men. Yet their undeniable skills make the satirical romp a piece of avant-garde art, giving new life to what is often thought of as art form for dainty women. Hold on to your tights, toe-shoes and tutus.

Come early or stay late for DANCEtalk!
All performances in The Dance Series also include an exciting opportunity
to deepen the dance experience with DANCEtalk. One hour before each 
performance in The Dance Series, come and learn more about 
that evening’s performance from the company’s artistic directors
and local dance experts. And following the performance will be an intimate
in-theater conversation and Q&A with the dancers.
