2009 Big Range Dance FestivalLocal choreographers put together a mega-fest of movementBy Julia RameyPublished on May 27, 2009 at 2:03amSince most dance companies center their seasons around spring and fall productions, the summer can seem a little slim (even by dancers standards). But thats not the case in Houston, thankfully, as the 2009 Big Range Dance Festivaloffers up nine nights of choice local dance. The event features three different programs over three weekends, full of dance both whimsical and serious from a host of Houstons most prominent and active choreographers. This weekends offerings include works from Jane Weiners Village of Waltz and Becky Vallss Chapter Two: House. Toni Leago Valle and Leslie Scates also contribute. On Sunday theres a dance gathering, in which 20 choreographers, both established and emerging, present four-minute dance snippets. This weekends performances are at 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and 7 p.m. Sunday. Other performance times vary. Through June 14. Barnevelder Movement/Arts Complex, 2201 Preston.
