Dominic Walsh Dance Theater: Fall Mixed Rep

Comments (0) By Olivia Flores Alvarez Thursday, Oct 13 2011

The Dominic Walsh Dance Theater opens its tenth-anniversary season with the spectacular Fall Mixed Rep. Among the new work being presented is Come un Respiro by Italian choreographer Mauro Bigonzetti. Set to classical music by Handel, Come un Respiro uses a distinctly unclassical vocabulary, with angular movements punctuating the work’s strong elegance. Adding even more spark to the new works is Stefania Figliossi, who created the role and will be performing it here. (She’s now a DWDT company member.)
