“Places in Space,” a collaborative performance presenting work from seven Washington, DC-based choreographers, will be held June 18 at 8pm and June 19 at 7pm at Dance Place.

Each choreographer has explored an outdoor location (place) and will bring her experience within this place and time to the stage (space). These themes, developed through exploration and improvisation, translate to an evening of choreographed works involving movement, voice and technology.

Choreographers include Roxann Morgan Rowley and Erika Surma, artistic directors of Next Reflex Dance Collective; Sharon Mansur, director of MansurDance and assistant professor of dance at The University of Maryland College Park; Dahlia Nayar; Monica Warren Schaeffer, founding member of ailight dance theater; and Next Reflex company members Tina Fratello and Briana Carper. Also participating is visual artist and architect Ronit Eisenbach.

Dance Place is located at 3225 8th Street NE, Washington DC. Tickets are $22 general admission, $17 for members, seniors, students, teachers, and artists, and $8 for children 17 and under. To purchase, call 202.269.1600 or visit www.danceplace.org.
