About DanceCircus:
The mission of
DanceCircus, Ltd. is to inspire, and entertain through the performing arts.
With concern for the people and the land, we bring affordable, accessible
programs to the entire community creating original works in music, dance
and theatre true to our midwestern heritage.
Betty Salamun's DanceCircus celebrate 30
years of inspiring, challenging, and entertaining performances marked by
artistry, clarity, elegance, and simplicity. Betty Salamun weaves together
movement, words, and music to create dances of power and meaning for
audiences of all ages. Working with award winning poets, musicians, and
visual artists she creates interdisciplinary performances. These
collaborations incorporate sign language interpreters, non-dancers, and
diverse population connecting the creative process of DanceCircus with life
and work in the community.
DANCECIRCUS-- NOT JUST ANOTHER PRETTY POINTED BARE FOOT!
Betty Salamun creates original performances with a topical edge weaving
tales with wit and beauty into a dance-theatre that moves mind and heart.
Collaborations
with outstanding poets, musicians, visual artists, and dancers, actors and
sign language interpreters spin contemporary performances of power and
meaning, “a strong visual style...entertains the mind as well as the
eye.” (Shepherd Express)
Not a typical
modern dance repertoire company, DANCECIRCUS presents a “trademark
successful blending of diverse art forms” integrating words, lights, music,
sounds, visual art, projections in “...eclectic, creative performances.”
(Milwaukee Journal/Sentinel)
“Fun, dynamic
...pulsating pace...with well integrated ensemble work.”
(Vital Source)
NOT easily described, DANCECIRCUS productions mesmerize “...the audience by
arousing their imagination...” through original and life stories danced,
spoken and displayed with “a mixture of excitement and intimacy."
(KALIHWISAKS)
And, the critics describe DANCECIRCUS as...“WITTY” AND “SPELLBINDING”
