Dances by Very Young Choreographers showcases the choreography of the students of Ellen Robbins, ages 8-18. It is devised to give a young audience exposure to the variety of theater experiences that modern dance affords. It includes dances that are humorous, narrative, minimal, lyrical and visually conceptual. The music selections, chosen by the choreographers, range from classical to contemporary, including folk, jazz, pop and the spoken word. Children in the audience will have an opportunity to come onstage for a brief, structured improvisation for the fun of dancing an idea.
Following the matinee on January 25th, there will be an evening concert by the Alumni of Dances by Very Young Choreographers, which presents work by dancers who studied with Ellen as early as 2016. The alumni artists are: Marina Chan, Lina Azalea Dahbour, Maia Sage Ermansons, Krista Jansen, Amelia Dawe Sanders, Alexandra Scully, Rakhel Shapiro and Lou Sydel.
