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.

Also on the program is "Lux" (2006), a 22-minute octet of exhilarating dance performed to "The Light "by Philip Glass. For more, visit www.americandancefestival.org and www.dougvaroneanddancers.org.
