Description
Smuin Contemporary Ballet celebrates its 25th anniversary season through Sunday with a program of works by founding choreographer Michael Smuin, designed to showcase his vision of "a lean and agile dance company." Until his death in 2007, Smuin was also supportive of dancers who wanted to show the company some of their own moves. This includes Amy Seiwert, who served as Smuin's first choreographer-in-residence before leaving to head the Sacramento Ballet and form her own dance company, Imagery. Smuin commissioned Seiwert's "Renaissance," set to the music of Oakland's Kitka Women's Vocal Ensemble, for this silver anniversary show.
