Dimensions Dance Theatre Of Miami Opens 2021-22 Season November 13 At South Miami-Dade Cultural Arts Center

The South Miami-Dade Cultural Arts Center presents the Dimensions Dance Theatre of Miami (DDTM) on Saturday, Nov. 13, at 8 p.m.. Returning to the main stage with this collaborative and inspired show, the company will perform "World Premieres" to open its 2021-22 season.

"World Premieres" will feature a long-anticipated world premiere of "Preludes" by Ariel Rose, a neoclassical work inspired by the piano compositions by Latin Grammy-nominated composer and pianist Jorge Mejia, and "DECO: Danzón of Eclectic Cultural Origin."

"DECO" is a tremendous artistic collaboration showcasing Art Deco-inspired contemporary choreography by Kevin Jenkins, costuming by award-winning designer Andrea Spiridonakos, and outstanding scenic design by Edouard Duval-Carrié. "DECO" is commissioned in major part by a Knight New Work grant by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, with scenic design co-commissioned by SMDCAC.

The show also premieres "Landscapes" by South Florida choreographer Donna Murray, a statement on love inspired by a collection of poems written by Lani Scozzari.

"Our relationship with Dimensions Dance Theatre of Miami is multi-faceted," reflected Eric Fliss, Managing Director of the South Miami-Dade Cultural Arts Center. "We share the same passion for innovation and creativity, and we aim to share professional artistic performances with the community at large to cultivate a wider audience of the arts."

Dimensions Dance Theatre of Miami is led by Carlos Guerra and Jennifer Kronenberg, who served as principal dancers for the Miami City Ballet. The company, which has an ongoing partnership with South Miami-Dade Cultural Arts Center, unites the community through affordable professional performances and furthers its mission to make world-class dance available to all through youth classes, educational presentations, and after-school workshops.
