Take Root's fabulous dance double bill series continues with
Perceptions Contemporary Dance Co.
A full evening length piece that explores the blue collar working force with a touch of light humor in five parts: "Good Morning Sunshine" - After spending hours and hours at the office working overtime, the restless night passes quickly. "Will You, Won't You? Do You, Don't You?" - Socialism, capitalism - the struggle of choosing what you want to do or what you want to have. "Rat Race" - The human rat race, the daily commute, the journey and inner transition from "have to" to "don't want to." "Karoshi" - Translated literally from Japanese as "death from overwork." "Power" - The "Aha" moment of regaining control.

SonneBlauma Danscz Theatre
West Coast based SonneBlauma Danscz Theatre will be presenting a selection of repertory and new choreographic works by Co-Artistic Directors Misa & Stephen Kelly. Stephen, a classically trained pianist, composer and choreographer has created a trio for three or more dancers on themes of isolation and solidarity. The work will be set to an original score by Kelly. Misa is presenting an emotionally rich solo, Whisk, set on Slovenian dancer Mojca Majcen which takes both the dancer and audience on a cathartic journey through the shadow lands of humanity's consciousness. Bringing levity to the program is Misa's X=Y, a work which explore the importance of buffoonery, absurdity & humor in the heart of the human condition. This work begins with dancers in their birthday suits but does not contain adult content or theme. Additionally Kelly will present Grit - a spunky and raucous duet that wrangles with all of the things we love and hate about sibling rivalry.
