WHITE WAVE'S SoloDuo Dance Festival
2024-02-09 19:00 - 22:30 | Dixon Place, 161A Chrystie St, New York, NY, 10002, United States
WHITE WAVE DANCE presents the 8th Annual SoloDuo Dance Festival on Thursday, February 8th, 2024 at 7:30pm and Friday, February 9th, 2024 at 7:00pm & 9:00pm at Dixon Place, 161A Chrystie St., New York, NY. Tickets are $25 in advance, $30 at the door, and $20 for students and seniors for each program, and $60 for all three programs.
The Festival will feature 30 dancemakers from the New York Metro area and from across the country, and from Korea, Japan and Germany selected by a panel of distinguished presenters and dance artists. WHITE WAVE’s Artistic Director Young Soon Kim founded the SoloDuo Dance Festival in 2016.
The program celebrates the unique art of the solo and duet—formats often favored by early-stage choreographers as their companies begin to find their paths within the dance world. The Festival creates new opportunities to display the latest work of both emerging and mid-career choreographers, offering vivid experiences for audiences with the goal of discovering and nurturing young talent. Dixon Place exemplifies a one of-a kind intimate venue that is particularly well-suited to showcase the artistry of solo and duet performances.
WHITE WAVE’s mission is to act as a potent stimulus to expand the horizons of dance by producing dance concerts, festivals, residencies, and educational activities. WHITE WAVE provides dancemakers an opportunity to congregate, create, and present new works on prestigious stages to the discerning NYC audience.

Presented by The Dragons Egg and partially supported by New England States Touring (NEST) Grant from NEFA ARTS.

The theme of the performance is based on Alison’s work “Murmuration,” set to Italian Composer Ottorino Respighi: Gli Uccelli The Birds. This piece is heavily inspired by the aerial ballet of the starlings that gather in flocks called murmurations. The dancers will perform a site-specific dance variation within the beautiful outdoor space of Denison Pequotsepos Nature Center.
We are honored to perform this piece based on birds at the Nature Center. Denison is a federally licensed wildlife rehabilitation and education facility that regularly takes in, rehabilitates, and cares for native creatures. Their goal is to release healthy animals back into areas of suitable habitat and specialize in birds of prey and songbirds.

Audience Members will participate in folding origami cranes with the dancers that will be collected and be a part of an art exhibition at Windhover Performing Arts Center in Rockport, MA. Bird masks will also be created, and movements from the dance will be introduced to those who would like to participate.

Pop-Up Performance—Cherry Blossoms Central Park
2023-04-15 12:30 | Cherry Blossoms Central Park
The company will be performing an excerpt of GRACE under the Sakura. Artistic Director Alison Cook-Beatty was inspired by the symbolism of the Cherry Blossoms when she choreographed the dance in 2014 – a symbolic flower of the spring, a time of renewal, and the fleeting nature of life. Japan presented New York with Yoshino cherry trees in 1912 as a symbol of friendship. With so much conflict happening in the world today, let’s remember these petals of happiness.
Company members Genaro Freire, Madeline Kuhlke, Ioanna Ioannides, and Payton Primer will also be dancing a structured improv to music by Japanese pianist and composer Naoko Hashimoto from her album Visions from the Piano. Naoko gave her beautiful music to Alison as a gift from Japan; Alison and the dancers send their dance in return as a gift of thanks.
Bring a picnic & please consider making a tax-deductible donation via PayPal or Zelle at acbdance@gmail.com to support our artists.
Direction:
From 5th Ave and E 84th St, walk west into the park with the museum on your left, walking up the walkway until you reach East Drive. Cross East Drive (watch for bikes and runners) and you will see us under the beautiful pink flowering trees.
If you have any trouble finding us, please call 917-409-7773.
