Contemporary Ballet Dallas to present Breaking Through
Contemporary Ballet Dallas opens the 2009-2010 season with Breaking Through on Thursday, October 29 at the Lakewood Theater in Dallas. The company’s season premiere will present audience favorites and original works by local choreographers. Combining myriad dance forms to create CBD’s signature contemporary style, the concert promises an eclectic evening of dance and music.
Valerie Shelton Tabor restages “Leave Her...Loving,” set to a musical collage by Dave Matthews Band. The piece follows a struggling relationship and the emotional breakthroughs each character undergoes. The evening also includes an audience favorite – “Rights of Survivorship” – a tribute to breast cancer awareness and survival. The piece is set to the familiar and intimate sounds of Collective Soul.
CBD assistant artistic director, Lindsay Bowman, gets the adrenaline flowing with “Higher Ground,” a high-energy duet set to music from The Red Hot Chili Peppers. And lastly, CBD will premiere Bowman’s “Come Back to Me,” set to the inimitable sounds of rising star David Cook.
Contemporary Ballet Dallas’ Breaking Through will take place one night only. The performance will begin at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are available online at www.tix.com. Prices begin at $20, and for an additional $15, patrons can elevate their performance experience to include a post-show private champagne reception with CBD dancers and artistic directors.

Good show and great bunch of performers. Never knew what "contemporary" dance etc was all about but this was very entertaining.
They have a Holiday show coming up at SMU I might go to.....in Dec.
