  2010-09-01\nEvent Date End: 2010-09-02\n\nThe Dance Program at Boston Uni
 versity is pleased to present DANCE SHOWCASE 2010 featuring work by alumni
 \, faculty\, and guests\, including Boston Ballet II (BBII). Performances 
 are Friday and Saturday\, October 1 and 2\, at 8 p.m. at the Boston Univer
 sity Dance Theater\, 915 Commonwealth Avenue. There are several premieres 
 and live accompaniment.  BBII joins choreographers Stephanie Creary\, Marg
 ot Parsons\, DeAnna Pellecchia\, Ingrid Schatz\,  and Micki Taylor-Pinney\
 , in collaboration with Ann Brown Allen and Lynn Modell. Members of the su
 mmer teen apprenticeship program\, Reach\, will perform a KRUMP piece chor
 eographed by company member\, Ashton Lites.   Boston University has an ext
 ensive dance program offering students and the general public traditional 
 technique classes as well as more social and contemporary forms. The roste
 r for this concert reflects the diversity of the curriculum and takes an i
 nclusive look at what constitutes concert dance.    Kairos Dance Theater (
 DeAnna Pellecchia and Ingrid Schatz) continues to explore themes of female
  aggression in their work.  They will present two new pieces in which liqu
 id movement alternates with guarded strength to create emotionally charged
  images exploring fear\, control and security in the context of our changi
 ng attitudes towards the roles that women play over the course of their li
 fetime.  Micki Taylor-Pinney\, director of the dance program\, has created
  the third section of a trilogy\, Taking Inventory\, Take 3 with Ann Brown
  Allen and Lynn Modell. This section is titled Why Do You (Still) Dance? T
 hese three mature dancers compare notes - what motivates and inspires them
 \, while contemplating what has changed or persisted.    Stirrings\, a new
  collaboration between choreographer Margot Parsons and composer Ai Isshik
 i\, is a duet for Nicole DeVicci and Christine McDowell. The piece is a st
 udy of light and dark\, individuality and collective involvement. Their mo
 vement morphs\, adapts\, and winds itself around the shifting energy of th
 e moment.      DANCE SHOWCASE - page 2 of 3  Stephanie Creary\, alumna and
  former assistant director of the dance program\, has created Timed Releas
 e inspired by her current experience as a PhD student in the organization 
 studies program at Boston College.  She is joined by Bess Rouse (former ma
 naging director of Anna Myer and Dancers) and Christina Harrison with orig
 inal music and live accompaniment by Ai Isshiki and Sukiko Mori.  This wor
 k is also a premiere.  Teen apprentices from the summer outreach program\,
  Reach\, will perform a KRUMP piece\, choreographed by Ashton Lites\, now 
 a freshman at Dean College. These young exuberant dancers have mastered th
 is street dance style that has connections to cartoon characters\, competi
 tions\, clowning\, and ecstatic movement.   BBII is the pre-professional p
 rogram in residence at Boston Ballet under the direction of Artistic Direc
 tor Mikko Nissinen and Assistant Artistic Director Russell Kaiser. Members
  of BBII are young dancers of outstanding ability from around the world. B
 BII members gain professional exposure and train with Boston Ballet artist
 ic staff\, company members\, as well as with guest choreographers\, stager
 s and directors from distinguished American and international companies. A
  major part of their performance education is understudying and appearing 
 regularly on stage with Boston Ballet. BBII also performs its own repertoi
 re throughout the Greater Boston Community. The repertory for Dance Showca
 se will be announced at a later date.  Lighting design for the concert is
