Anne-Marie Mulgrew Home Season Concert

Anne-Marie Mulgrew (ACG '12, WOO '03, '01) and Dancers Company presents its home season concert, Red, White and Blue featuring World of Dreams 2014 and Six Short Works for Dance and Film choreographed by artistic director Anne-Marie Mulgrew for her company. In addition, Ashley Searles (choreographer-dancer) will perform her newest solo, Elevation 2014. Performances take place Friday, May 16 at 7:30pm; Saturday, May 17 at 7:30pm; and Sunday, May 18 at 3:00pm, Christ Church Neighborhood House, 20 N. American Street, Philadelphia, PA. Tickets are $20 general admission and $15 for Dance Pass/Students/Seniors. For more information, call 215-462-7720 or visit www.annemariemulgrewdancersco.org. Tickets can be purchased online athttp://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/629842 reserved by phone or at the door.

Based on themes of identity, dreams, and desires, World of Dreams is a continuation of emotionally-charged Dig 2012 and The Keepers Project 2013 created in collaboration with video artist and longtime collaborator, Carmella Vassor-Johnson. In this new ensemble dance, choreographer/director Anne-Marie Mulgrew uses as a point of departure the questions: What is and what makes an American? Is the American dream alive, breathing, misplaced, or has it been absorbed and impacted by the global world we all live in? Audiences will be taken on a non-linear adventure through a series of dance vignettes set to big band, classical, new age, and contemporary music, text, sounds, projected imagery and unexpected costumes. 

There will be a meet and greet with light refreshments with the company following each performance.
