Since most dance companies center their seasons around spring and fall productions, the summer can seem a little slim (even by dancers’ standards). But that’s 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 Houston’s most prominent and active choreographers. This weekend’s offerings include works from Jane Weiner’s Village of Waltz and Becky Valls’s Chapter Two: House. Toni Leago Valle and Leslie Scates also contribute. On Sunday there’s a “dance gathering,” in which 20 choreographers, both established and emerging, present four-minute dance snippets. This weekend’s 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. For information, call 713-529-1819 or visit www.bigrange.org. $14 to $18.
Fridays-Sundays. Starts: May 29. Continues through June 14, 2009
