MOVE: the company  - New York - Josh Beamish, Artistic Director

Vincent Lopez - Seattle - Choreographer (and principle dancer with Spectrum Dance Theater)

Mid Columbia Ballet - Richland, WA - Debra Rogo, Artistic Director

Andrew Bartee - Seattle - Choreographer (and PNB company member)

Shayla Bott & Company - Utah - Shayla Bott, Artistic Director

Each of these companies/artists have a terrific story to tell and each will be bringing their unique work to the Theatre at Meydenbauer on Feb. 16th and 17th, 2013.

This will be definitely be a feast for the eyes...and the heart!
