JKing Dance Company (JKDC) presents 'Thinking Out Loud'
Visit: www.JoyceKingDance.com
Brooklyn based, JKing Dance Company (JKDC) presents 'Thinking Out Loud' one night only on:
Saturday, May 9th, 2015 at 8pm

Come join JKDC and celebrate Mother's Day weekend with Company members Danelle Herran,Ayumi Uchida, Danielle Mondi , Shoko Fujita, Katarina Lott, Constance Nicolas Vellozzi, Brittany Posas, and Artistic Director Joyce King for our 4th season at The Ailey Citigroup Theater /Joan Weill Center for Dance in NYC.

In 'Thinking Out Loud',  the acclaimed, all-female dance company features original choreography by JKDC Founder and Artistic Director Joyce King. Described as 'Dramatic Contemporary', JKDC explores King's newest work, 'Per.cept.Shun'- the tour through seven women's internal prison, reflecting on apprehension and the euphoria of 'what if?'- supported by the heartfelt and original music of ardent cello composer, Zoe Keating.

The night also includes King's new and revised works of, 'Com.Part.Men.tal.Eyes', (part of a larger work, 'Threw the FOG', to be premiered in 2016) that probes into the dynamism and complex nature of mental disorders - enhanced by the original music of composer Kevin Keller.

As part of JKDC's mission,  we are happy to continue to offer opportunities for young emerging dancers. Opening our show (some of the talented students KIng teaches at the Joffrey Ballet Trainee Program) are:  Shannon Murphy, Maria Oka  Rieko Tsunoda , Isobel Roblin, Ylenia Finotti, Jiryeong Cho, Maria Sol Marattin , Sae Mantani , Diana Lorena Namwhan Rawinan   ). King, assisted by Danelle Herran has restaged an excerpt from JKDC's 'LISTEn'..  - JKDC recognized by the press in 2014
''......certain choreographers, and their charges, stood out as unique. .... Joyce King's "LISTEn (an excerpt)", a large ensemble flight into the realm of the imagination, felt like a force of nature.   -- Jamie Townsend/Explore Dance- 2014

For Designs: King collaborates for the second time with Deborah Erenberg, who savors the challenge of creating costumes that encourages and accentuates movement, while keeping a unified mood and aesthetic, intensified by the lighting designs of Serena Wong.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
"Most people know me as an actress, but the truth of it is that I started off as a dancer so my heart is always first and foremost in the dance world.  The most powerful women are up there and it's just an empowering dance company for women.  The choreography is so fluid, so great, so special." (2014)- Ilene Kristen/Actress, ABC's "General Hospital", "One Life To Live," "Ryan's Hope"

-Karen Pariseau, Director/Owner, Bedford Dance Center

'It's been several weeks since I attended the JKing dance concert, and yet each piece remains vividly etched in my mind, which says a lot about the impact of these poignant vignettes..... I was spellbound. Beautiful work!' (2013)   -Rosalinde Block, Author, NYC

'King has given the little girls inside us a chance to scream with out uttering a sound, beautiful, breathtakingly beautiful.'  (2013) -Maria Gentile, Singer/Songwriter, NYC
