Creative Continuum: Dances with Live Music

Island Moving Company, Newport’s contemporary ballet company, makes its second appearance at the beautiful Vets Memorial Auditorium.  For this evening, entitled “Creative Continuum,” Artistic Director Miki Ohlsen has programmed premieres by acclaimed choreographers Kevin Jenkins and Rodney Rivera.  The program also celebrates Leonard Bernstein’s Centennial with a performance of Psalms with the RI Civic Choral and Orchestra.  Now in its 36th season, IMC has performed on tour and regularly in Newport but has only once performed a full evening at the Vets, and is excited to return with another evening of original dance works performed entirely to live music.
