The Fall Forward Festival is a month-long festival of shared evening performances celebrating the incredibly talented and robust Minnesota dance community. New dance audiences will experience a sampler of genres in one sitting, while avid dance-goers will see their favorite artists alongside equally stellar new-to-them artists. Each weekend features a new roster and a variety of experiences from new work commissions and Cowles stage debuts to community favorites and Cowles Center veterans.

Week Three features Zorongo Flamenco Dance Theatre, Black Label Movement, and Crash Dance Productions.

Black Label Movement Artistic Director Carl Flink’s thrilling movement poem reflects the volatile energies realeased into his mother during chemotherapy. A prologue to Arthur Miller’s “The Crucible,” Crash Dance Productions extrapolates what happens when the private rites of teenagers get misinterpreted by the eyes of adults– to disastrous ends. Zorongo Flamenco Dance Theatre unties with hip hop master Darrius Strong and composer Juanito Pascual to begin a magical journey.
