VON USSAR danceworks presents the 8th Annual The Dance Gallery Festival, featuring original works from emerging and renowned choreographers from around the country in three performance programs. Level UP serves as a performance showcase for three talented dance companies/choreographers that are ready to advance to the next level in the development and promotion of their work. Each company receives 25 minutes of performance time at the prestigious Ailey Citigroup Theater and a small stipend.
This year’s Level UP performance on Sunday, October 26 at 7pm will include 2014 Princess Grace Award recipient Gabrielle Lamb, Manuel Vignoulle, Joshua Peugh/Dark Circles Contemporary Dance. In 2013 Dance Gallery Festival implemented the AUDIENCE CHOICE AWARD. The audience selects one choreographer they would like to see in the Level UP program in the next year.
The Dance Gallery Festival is produced and curated by VON USSAR danceworks under the artistic direction of Astrid von Ussar. In 2011, Andy Noble became Associate Artistic Director of The Dance Gallery Festival. Founded to address the scarcity of affordable venues available for presentation of modern dance, the festival showcases the works of both established and emerging choreographers in a state of the art theater.
