Doug Varone and Dancers Perform at
the American Dance Festival

Doug Varone and Dancers will appear at the American
Dance Festival (ADF) in Durham, N.C., from July 7 to 9
at 8 p.m. in Reynolds Industries Theater.

The company offers a combination of kinetic dexterity,
musicality, technical prowess, and passion.
Established in 1986, Doug Varone and Dancers have
performed in 45 U.S. states as well as prestigious
venues across Europe, Asia, Canada, and South
America.

Holding more than 11 New York Dance and
Performance Awards or “Bessies,” Doug Varone has
choreographed for dance, theater, opera, film,
television, and fashion. This season, Doug Varone and
Dancers come ready to impress with two intricately
woven works saturated with both nuance and intensity.
Members of the company perform "Home" (1988), a
touching duet set to music by A. Leroy that depicts the
subtle shades of acceptance, rejection, passion. and
greed between two people. Also on the program is
"Lux" (2006), a 22-minute octet of exhilarating dance
performed to "The Light "by Philip Glass.
