miliosr Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 For those of you in the Seattle area, the Cornish Dance Theater (at the Cornish College of the Arts) will be presenting an excerpt of Psalm (1967) as part of its Spring performances (April 27/28). Former Limon company member Brenna Monroe-Cook is the stager. Link to comment
miliosr Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 Alastair Macaulay reviews the Limon Dance Company at the Joyce: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/06/21/arts/dance/the-limon-dance-company-at-the-joyce.html?_r=1&ref=arts (Truth be told, I have to agree with him about The Emperor Jones and La Cathedrale Engloutie. And even though this is the third time he's panned Roxane D'Orleans Juste in print for her performance in Chaconne, he was fair and noted that the audience gave her an ovation.) Link to comment

miliosr Posted July 11, 2012 Author Share Posted July 11, 2012 Our very own Leigh Witchel reviews the performance(s) in the New York Post: http://www.nypost.com/p/entertainment/pucker_up_dated_limon_sours_with_23B75a7BGK5PYegWTQnykK (Agree about the "disjointed narrative" in The Emperor Jones. And I wish Limon dancer Kathryn Alter had danced Chaconne on opening night -- I think she could have brought it to life.) Link to comment
miliosr Posted July 27, 2012 Author Share Posted July 27, 2012 The US Postal Service releases the Jose Limon stamp this weekend: http://www.bmacmedia.net/?p=743 And, with that, I'll close out this thread for 2011-12. Thanks to all two of you who contributed to it! Link to comment
