Erin Clyne, Sandy Donahue, Katie Burrows, and Amanda Dayton (from left to right) in the work, "On & Off," excerpt from 'flash drive,' at Links Hall. Those 3 women inspire me; The Monocle Eclectic Dance Company is extremely fortunate to have a group of such talented, powerful, and soulful dancers.

Katie Burrows, Sandy Donahue, and Amanda Dayton (from left to right) in the work, 'Phase I.' Intrigued by this picture? You're in luck, this work will be seen again in Dance Chicago, stay tuned for show dates!

Christina Savino, Amanda Dayton, Katie Burrows, and Dustyn Martincich (from left to right) in the work, 'but a moment.' This piece was set to an excerpt of the song "LaLa We-Qawu" by The Children of the Agape Choir, and was truly one of my personal favorite pieces from 'flash drive'.

Once upon a September,

a Chicago choreographer began putting things in motion...

After a smashing three-performance-sell-out success in April 2011 with "Then Again," in collaboration with Dustin Martincich, The Monocle Eclectic Dance Company is gearing up for future endeavors.

More collaborations, opportunities, and community involvement to come.

Keep dancing and stay tuned!

Opening in 10 days!!!

then again is a two-act evening of fresh choreography presenting two dance artists’ perspectives on the flux and convergence of time through memory.

"Lone Windows," a new narrative work by Dustyn Martincich, inspired by selected paintings from Edward Hopper and flash fiction from Joseph Scapellato, explores isolated characters transported by moments that flash from the past and present.

"Flash Drive," created by The Monocle Eclectic Dance Company's Kathryn Burrows, utilizes imagery and film to submerge the audience into a vivid world, flashing by as our memories often do: in reverse.

Friday, April 8th at 8pm

Saturday, April 9th at 8pm

Sunday, April 10th at 7pm

Hope to see you there!
