High Release Dance in Concert

High Release is a collaborative group in which dancers take turns choreographing primarily modern works, High Release Dance Company performs regularly in venues around the San Francisco Bay Area. While primarily based in modern dance, the group explores a range of dance styles, with each member acting as both choreographer of her own works and dancer in other choreographers' pieces. High Release is unique in that the group has no director, but works as a completely democratic organization in which each member has equal voice and contributes her particular talents.

High Release pieces range from highly abstract modern compositions to intricately designed jazz routines, including lyrical movement poems, improvisations, and theatrical works that create a sense of place and plot with unique characterizations. While mood ranges from the dark and serious to the light and humorous, throughout the work is a distinctive High Release "flavor" characterized by dynamic, energetic movement.
