Pretty Creatives 2019 Review

Oregon Arts Watch previewed NW Dance Project’s 2019 Pretty Creatives Showing, noting, “This one-night only event spotlights talent that, while not exactly new, may be new to us. This is the 10^th year that NW Dance Project has staged the Pretty Creatives International Choreographic Competition, which is designed to groom contemporary dance talent. This year’s two winners, chosen from more than 100 submissions, spent 18 hours working with 30 professional dancers chosen by auditions across North America to participate in this year’s LAUNCH Project, a two-week intensive focused on technique, improv and choreographic mastery. (The project also serves as a de facto audition process for the company itself.)”
