We have TWO fabulous choreographers on this upcoming concert of “Dixit Dominus and Cantos” happening May 17-19, 2024! First up we have the Artistic Director + master mind behind everything the company does, Christal Wagner! Let’s hear a little more about her work below! ⬇️ ✨Grab your tickets to see Dixit today-seating is unique and limited. “Pairing modern dance with Aperi Animam's performance of Handel’s Dixit Dominus opens a door to romanticism in a new way. The rich baroque style of the music lends itself to contemporary modern dance in a grander fashion than the average dance concert. Within this production, a single character takes center stage, embarking on a poignant journey through the myriad facets of humanity. Each vignette unfolds like a tapestry of emotions — from the exultation of joy to the depths of despair and everything in between. It's a romantic ode to the essence of humanity, where the mundane routines of everyday life give way to the profound richness of human experience. In the highs and lows, in joy and pain, lies the heartbeat of existence, reminding us of the beauty inherent in our shared journey.Choreographer Christal Wagner uses modern dance stylings that give respectful attention to history’s most well known choreographers, Taylor, Limón, Graham, and Cunningham. Danceworks Performance MKE firmly infuses these classical modern techniques in this contemporary adaptation.”Ticket link: app.arts-people.com/index.php?ticketing=dwmke&mibextid=7G5ntw“Dixit Dominus and Cantos” May 17-19, 2024at Calvary Presbyterian Church935 W.

Spotlight on Lindsay Olson

Posted on by 10Web Support

Lindsay Olson Danceworks' Board Member

Meet Lindsay Olson, one of our bright new additions to the Danceworks board!

Lindsay brings a necessary area of expertise to a growing organization like Danceworks—Human Resources. She’s our resource for making sure that we’re resourceful humans!

Lindsay has been instrumental in finalizing our newest Policies and Procedures Employee Handbook and brings great energy and expertise to our Governance Committee.

Beginning her career at Charter Manufacturing (CM) as an intern eight years ago, she is now a Senior Human Resource Representative, where her responsibilities lie in growth-oriented strategy. In addition to her responsibilities locally, she also travels to CM’s new business Charter Dura-Bar in Woodstock, Illinois one to two days per week.

It was Danceworks President Elect, Danielle Bly, who introduced Tim and me to Lindsay. We were http://buysoma.net immediately drawn to her generous nature and contagious laugh. She was a dancer as a child and enjoyed the theatre district while she was working in Cleveland before moving back to Milwaukee. Lindsay thought that joining the Danceworks board would be a great first step in getting involved back in the arts, and we are all thrilled about that.

Lindsay finds balance in life by knowing when it’s okay to leave work, trusting that the work will be there tomorrow. She places high value on that balance, and as an avid sports fan, enjoys traveling to different sporting events throughout the year with her family.

Please join me in officially welcoming Lindsay to Danceworks’ Board!
