Dworkin’s new duet "Sanctuary" — premiered last month
at Joyce SoHo in New York — is a richly-textured landscape, full of detail, lithe fluidity and sparkling gestures. Two
disparate people find a connection when their paths intersect; a shared movement language is created, spanning the psychic
and physical space between two worlds. Danced by Dworkin herself and the lovely Darla Stanley.

Leslie Scates, Tiffany Couser, and Jhon Stronks
"Flying Legs of Doom" uses improvisation technique and form to create dance performance, based on the delegation of choreographic and production
elements, as well as statement of artistic desire. Sound design by Jhon Stronks, lighting by Jeremy Choate
and Leslie Scates, costumes by Tiffany Couser. Performed by Couser, Scates, and Stronks, three very refined and
very different dancers in terms of movement style and language, creating for the audience a fascinating juxtaposition
of various modes of impetus, development, and delivery.

Darla Stanley (Connecticut)
"Neuro-flak", a new solo work by Darla Stanley, essays
the moment of explosion when the forces of scientism and spiritual transformation collide. To a riveting score for bowed piano
by composer Toby Twining and with a costume by Philadelphia's Heidi Barr, Stanley's choreography combines liquid movement
with taut outbursts.

In "ogle", a new multi-media work, Ell tinkers with
nuances of observation and perception using projected video and both pre-recorded movement and live movement. This work
toys with an intentional confusion and melding of time and a superimposition of real and imagined images. Creation of
this piece is supported by a Houston Arts Alliance Individual Artist Grant and Choreography Fellowship awarded to Ell.
