NuDance Festival - Performance Details
The Riverside Theatre
December 6-8, 2007
"Choreographers Stretch Visions in and Out of the Box"
"Showcases can be deadly, but the selection of choreographers for the NuDance Festival on Saturday night at Theater of the Riverside Church was unusually good. The artists came from a wide range of backgrounds, including Broadway, mainstream modern dance and hip-hop. Nearly everyone had something distinctively personal to say, for the most part stylistically." Read review...

"Hip-Hop Choreographer Laurie Ann Gibson Does Ballet, Battles Diddy"
"It's fusion but definitely a little bit of crump. We pop and lock and just do hip-hop, which can be a number of things. We use the latest dances you can find in Harlem and the streets and fuse it with the story. I'm getting them to see hip-hop with a line and with meaning, and not as just random. And also make the rats crump and get loose!" Read review...
