Company C Contemporary Ballet Opens 2012 10th Anniversary Season January 20, 2012

Friday, January 20, at 8pm, and Saturday, January 21, at 3pm and 8pm

Company C Contemporary Ballet will open its 10th anniversary season with ballets by founder and Artistic Director Charles Anderson, Peter Anastos, Alexandre Proia and David Grenke. The tenth anniversary season opening program bursts with versatility, wit and romance led by Peter Anastos, Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo founder and frequent collaborator with Mikhail Baryshnikov, whose "Footage" will receive its Company premiere. Alexandre Proia's "World to Come" is meditatively lush and visionary and David Grenke's "Vespers" is a physically demanding, deeply emotional and beautiful duet by this former Paul Taylor dancer set to music by Tom Waits. Charles Anderson's powerfully athletic "Akimbo" has its roots in neo-classicism and its apotheosis in contemporary style showing the full range and prowess of his decade-old company.
