Bridge for Dance is riding high off of
the energized 2006/07 season of the Uptown Performance Series (uPs) that
showcased over twenty new works by up and coming choreographers.
Continuing the ingenuity of the
well-established showcase, the series will debut NYC choreographers and
new works on the rise for the 2008-09 season.
The Uptown Performance Series has had a
powerful presence on the Upper Westside and the NYC dance scene for over
9 years, attracting new and established choreographers from around the
city, its five boroughs and the tri-state area. The successful series
has pushed boundaries by presenting the classical to the eclectic,
showcasing delectable works to please a variety of dance palettes.
Our personal attention & dedication to
providing an intimate and professional setting has made our venue quite
unique and attractive to presenters and audiences alike. Our converted
studio theater seats 70 and is one of the few venues left uptown which
is still committed to promoting emerging choreographers as well as
offering affordable rehearsal & performance space to dancers.
In addition to
the series’ four showcase dates, November through May, we are pleased to
announce the return of our end of the year program “RISING UP” focusing
on four choreographers selected from our season.
