Dance St. Louis "Made In America" 08-09 season

Dance St. Louis recently announced their 2008-2009 "Made In America" season. For those of you not familiar with Dance St. Louis, it is an organization whose mission is to "provide the St. Louis region with the world's best dance and to develop an appreciation of dance as an art form". Every year, they bring some of the best companies in the USA to the St. Louis area to teach workshops, perform, and teach the general public about dance today. This year, they have a killer line up of companies that I can't wait to see.

Among the many groups performing this season are BalletMet, Paul Taylor Dance Company, Pilobolus, Hubbard Street Dance, Riverdance, Kansas City Ballet, and many others. Dance St. Louis will also host the second annual Spring To Dance festival, a three night mixed bill program starring companies considered some of the "best of the midwest" this Memorial Day weekend, May 21-23, 2009.

More information is available at the Dance St. Louis website.

Stay on your toes,

Selly
