GW performs at Gibney POP Performance Series

GroundWorks Dancers Downie Photography

Celebrating its 20th anniversary, GroundWorks presents a world premiere by Cleveland native and internationally renowned choreographer Dianne McIntyre. Regarded as an artistic pioneer, with an impressive career spanning four decades with choreography for dance, theatre, television and film, Ms. McIntyre brings her individualistic style to GroundWorks in a dramatic new work.  Also on the program is James Gregg’s “éveillé” (Awake) inspired by Italian poet Giambattista Basile’s version of the Sleeping Beauty story.  Creating this work in 2017 for GroundWorks, Gregg combines his unique “fixed point” style of movement while re-imagining a timeless story about tenderness, love, dark beauty and tragedy.  Rounding out the program is “LUNA” by GroundWorks Artistic Director David Shimotakahara. LUNA explores the nature of desire and its deeply held and often opposing motivations. “These polarities developed into a series of physical relationships that reveal many facets in a cycle of experience,” Shimotakahara says of LUNA. “That cycle is like the moon, as primal and unknowable as it is familiar.”
