On The Human Side

AN EVENING OF MODERN DANCE. SAN FRANCISCO CHOREOGRAPHERS VISIT SEATTLE!! FEATURING THE WORK OF DHPCo., RAISSA SIMPSON (artistic director) PUSH DANCE COMPANY, AND PACO GOMES.

DHPCo's 2008/09 season is scheduled to tour the Seattle area on April 10 & 11 at Washington Ensemble Theater. The program brings several of DHPCo. repertoire works along with a series which explores the Diaspora of Latino culture and historical influences on American idealism. The goal for these performances, along with collaboration from other artists, is to expand the range of the company and the base of its audience by providing a culturally textured program.

Guest Artist, Raissa Simpson, artistic director of Push Dance Company brings
"Adinfinitum" (2001, restaged 2005) a solo in memory of her father set to music by John Sebastian Bach. Also, "Mixed Messages" (excerpt) work-in-progress from a lush 40-minute piece. Audience members pass through a
series of intricate mixed-race imagery bound by isolation, identity,
self-image, and acceptance.
