Kaleidoscope Choreographers Festival

Alliance Dance Company presents our 2nd Annual Choreographers Festival - Kaleidoscope.

Last year was a big success with the final show a sellout.  This year is even bigger.

If a Kaleidoscope operates on the principle of multiple reflection,
then this dance festival is truly such!

You will not want to miss a chance to see one of the most diverse dance festivals
in Chicago with works created by 25 choreographers from the Midwest region.

Over 60 pieces were submitted for consideration by committee to bring you
a different show each night!

Intergenerational ripples of memory come to life in “Hisako’s House”

Aug 15, 2024 | By Rachel Benzing

 

Physical spaces, like a childhood home or favorite park, evoke vivid memories and serve as tangible markers of past experiences. These locations, with their unique sensory details, anchor our memories, making the past feel immediate and accessible and allowing us to relive moments from our lives through our once-inhabited spaces.

Atonement

Witness the U.S. premiere of renowned choreographer Cathy Marston's 'Atonement' in her re-imagining of Ian McEwan’s 2001 novel-turned Academy Award®-winning film.
