Dayton Contemporary Dance
March 5th, 2007 Posted in Dance, Cultural District
The August Wilson Center for African American Culture hosts the heralded return of the Dayton Contemporary Dance Company. In this dynamic program, DCDC has assembled four different choreographers to create dance works inspired by the powerful paintings of Jacob Armstead Lawrence (1917-2000), one of the great artists of the 20th century. The evening will feature the work of Donald Byrd, Rennie Harris, Kevin Ward and Reggie Wilson.
The performance will be held on Saturday, March 10, 2007, at 8 p.m. in the Byham Theater. Tickets ($18.50-$40.50) are available by calling (412) 456-6666 or visiting online at pgharts.org.
