New Adventures in Dance

By Liz Bulkley on Tuesday, April 11, 2006.

Dartmouth Dance Ensemble Director Ford Evans asked a bunch of his colleagues to write pieces that center around a table -- both thematically and literally. He then assembled them into a single performance, creating a sort of collaborative project where none of the choreographers worked together. We'll talk with Evans about his latest project and we'll get his take on the state of Modern Dance.

Later in the show, we'll meet a Maine woman who fell head-over-heels with Tango, then started her own line of shoes to go along with her obsession. But that wasn't where her love affair with dance ended. This piece comes to us via the Public Radio Exchange. You can click here to listen to the piece directly and to comment on it.
