FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Endicott, N.Y.
Purely Technique Dance along with OUR Company present: JEU D’ ESPRIT
JEU D’ESPRIT is Purely Technique’s 10th fundraiser dance concert.
It showcases dance arts in a theatrical setting, featuring OUR Company work, which celebrates community and explores ideas and feelings that evoke contemplation and understanding. This year’s theme, “JEU D’ESPRIT” is a multi media performance featuring OUR Company repertoire that examines literature, art, and other topics through movement. “JEU D’ESPRIT” is thought provoking, yet
playbill and spirited.
Purely Technique’s OUR Company is under the artistic direction of Erin Saddlemire, a twenty year veteran in dance arts. Erin conceptualizes well rounded, cohesive dance works. She also utilizes the thoughts, feelings, and actions of her dancers through chorographical structures and improvisational storytelling. Performing members’ ideas are an integral part of OUR Company’s creative process and Erin gravitates toward exploring movement stories literally, figuratively, and through abstraction. JEU D’ ESPRIT will also showcase the hard work and artistry of Purely Technique dance students, and guest performances by Dynamic Dance and Movement (Endwell, N.Y.), and dancers from some of EPAC’s adult dance classes (Endicott, N. Y.).
It is tradition to hold the annual dance concert as a fundraiser. Each year an arts club or organization within the Greater Binghamton community is chosen to receive the proceeds of the show. Endicott Performing Arts Center will again, be our chosen beneficiary group, as well as this year’s host.
There will be one performance of JEU D’ ESPRIT on Thursday June 22nd, 2023 at
7:00PM. The performance will be held in the Robert Eckert Theater located at 102
Washington Avenue in the Endicott Performing Arts Center.
