Proscenium arch
Founded in 2003 by Nancy Laurie, Cedar Lake Contemporary Ballet has distinguished itself
through both its exceptionally talented corps of sixteen dancers and its concurrent
emphasis on acquiring and commissioning new works by the world’s most sought-after
choreographers.
Under the Artistic Direction of Benoit-Swan Pouffer, Cedar Lake
offers a wide-ranging spectrum of repertory, including works by Alexander Ekman, Hofesh
Shechter, Crystal Pite, Jacopo Godani, Angelin Preljocaj, Ohad Naharin, Didy Veldman, Jo
Strømgren, Regina van Berkel and Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui. Repertoire also includes
dance installations by Pouffer that breakdown the barrier between performer and audience
creating a one of a kind dance experience.
Through their daring, athletic
movement and integration of ballet into contemporary and popular forms, the dancers of
Cedar Lake take audiences on a choreographic journey that explores the infinite
possibilities of movement and multimedia. Upcoming works for 2012-13 include Indigo
Rose by Jiří Kylián and new works by Julie Bour and Andonis
Foniadakis.
