"Atlanta’s dance Renaissance gets national exposure in Dance Magazine"

Dance educator and critic Cynthia Bond Perry has a overview of Atlanta's expansive dance scene and a retrospective of the Atlanta Ballet, its leadership and its ethos published in this month's edition of Dance Magazine.  Highlights of these articles are featured on the local arts blog ArtsCriticATL in her own words.  Her articles and sidebar and accompanying images do a great job of placing dance around the city and educating readers about the unique aspects of the 70+ artists, companies, schools and studios she names.  As a must-read for those of us on the scene, it's a good starting place to get to know our extended familty.

Mini Mob Makes Dance Debut

Diehard Flashers braved the elements on New Year's Eve to dance for the sheer joy of it.  The Durski's provides this link to video of the mini mob and LynnBob shot this one.  Photos are courtesy of Eddie Hatchett. We were excited that Beth Lewis joined in... she has just returned to the states from completing Pilobolus' Shadowland tour which concluded with a special performance for HM Queen Elizabeth II.  Thursday's dance marked a 50 year celebration for Flasher Susan Asher.  Long time BCD supporters Lynn and Bob were there to specifically start off their New Year dancing among friends!  Other Flashers: Lisa, Su, Honora, Red, Kelley, Christy, Cherlyn & her friend, Jo and Kayte.  Thanks to our supporters for coming along and thanks to photographer Joeff Davis from Creative Loafing for dropping by.  We'll post more video and images shortly.  Also, thanks to @atlantabike of the Atlanta Bike Coalition and @joeventures for helping spread the word about the mob.
