Our Spring Premieres - Live shows MAR 4+5 / 2022 at the Newmark Theatre ushered in three distinct and varied works by returning NW Dance Project choreographers Yin Yue, Ihsan Rustem (Resident Choreographer), and Joseph Hernandez.
Oregon Arts Watch noted "NW Dance Project’s program Spring Premieres offered three distinct perspectives on some of the present concerns of contemporary dance...NWDP’s newly coalesced company possesses a palpable rapport onstage, meeting theatrical and physical demands with gusto. The dancers skillfully inhabited the trajectory of these three choreographies, which moved from an exploration of physical terrain into the depths of emotional landscapes and psyches...One thing is certain, however: NWDP’s dancers are a powerful force ready to dive into complex challenges.
