Process and perspective: A choreographic journey

Five dances were produced: Arc of Moons, Someday , Another Night, Facing Yesterday, and Out of Time. The works were performed in concert at the Martha B. Knoebel Dance Theater, California State University, Long Beach---the first two 5--8 October 2000, the third and fourth 27--30 September 2001, and the fifth 20--23 February, 2003.;Arc of Moons was a blend of modern movement vocabulary with stylized flamenco gesture for five women. Someday, a modern dance for six dancers, provides a whimsical look at familiar matrimonial images through movement. Another Night, choreographed on five female dancers, employed strongly characterized gesture, Latin social dance, and jazz technique. Facing Yesterday, a solo work created and performed by this choreographer, was a creative expression of personal loss. Out of Time, a modern dance for seven women, was an experiment using movement and gesture as symbolic imagery. These works are documented and analyzed.
