DESCRIPTION:Along the Way will feature a cohort of new dance works, both for film and 
 stage. The evening includes a dryly humorous and satirical take on 
 illusions and lies in relationships, a film following a cast of oddball 
 characters, and other highly theatrical and adventurous work from both 
 companies. Live performances include Fancy (caitlin elliott dance 
 collective), Imitations of Intimacy (detour dance), and a collaborative 
 piece between the two companies. The evening will also feature the world 
 premiere screening of detour dance's newest dance film, Pedestrian 
 Crossing.\n\nAbout caitlin elliott dance collective\nCEDC is a contemporary 
 dance company with a highly physical, athletic, acrobatic style with a bit 
 of a flare for the dramatic. The CEDC was created to use movement as a way 
 to propel conversation, highlight eccentricities in people, and bring to 
 life emotions that are intrinsic to being alive. There is a large variety 
 to the CEDC style because, as we all know, sometimes words say things best, 
 sometimes movement says it best, and sometimes it is a combination of the 
 two. The performers are known to sometimes talk, sing, and dance all in the 
 same piece. This is the inaugural season for the CEDC and they will have a 
 home season in the san francisco bay area during the spring and summer of 
 2012, as well as a few touring destinations throughout the year.\n\nCaitlin 
 Elliott is a Bay Area based contemporary dancer and choreographer. She 
 began dancing at the age of five and has been a lover of movement ever 
 since. Growing up in Colorado she studied tap, jazz, ballet, and musical 
 theater with Betsy Mcclenahan and was also a competitive gymnast for seven 
 years. In 2005, she moved to San Francisco to study dance at the University 
 of San Francisco and has the the privilege of studying and performing with 
 Nina Haft, Natalie Greene, Amie Dowling, Jo Kreiter, Megan Nicely, and 
 Randee Paufve. She began choreographing in 2007 and her love of athleticism 
 and drama inform her movement style and choreography.\n\n\nAbout detour 
 dance\n"Together the two [Kat Cole and Eric Garcia] have chemistry and 
 perfect comic timing -- a combination that's rare in the world of dance." 
 Jonathan Curiel, SF WEEKLY 2012\n\nLed by Kat Cole and Eric Garcia, detour 
 dance is a contemporary dance company that tackles the idiosyncrasies and 
 quirky tenderness of human relationships set against the backdrop of 
 everyday life. Located in San Francisco, detour dance magnifies these 
 already existing subtleties, present in a city where the smallest 
 interactions go unnoticed. They explore the inconspicuous through 
 multi-media, physically-integrated, inter-generational, and site-specific 
 work, creating an environment where their collaborators are just as 
 curious. Known for their eccentric and recognizable gestures and 
 contrasting full-bodied contemporary technique, they encourage audiences to 
 reevaluate who can dance and where art happens.\n\nKat Cole and Eric Garcia 
 represent San Francisco's newest generation of choreographers and 
 performers. Kat and Eric presented works throughout the Bay Area prior to 
 the creation of a company name in 2010 and, after collaborating on their 
 first piece, Inhabiting Spaces, they quickly realized how well they jive 
 together. Almost immediately following the company's debut performance at 
 CounterPULSE, Kat and Eric received support from the Theatre Bay Area CA$H 
 Grant, became fiscally sponsored through Dancers' Group, and were accepted 
 into dance and film festivals throughout the country. In February 2012, 
 they were awarded 1st place in the SF Weekly's Masterminds Competition, 
 which recognizes emerging visual, dance and film artists in San 
 Francisco.\n\nAlong the Way is funded in part by The Zellerbach Family 
 Foundation, Theatre Bay Area CA$H Grant, and SF Weekly.\n
