“Urbanity is establishing itself as a leader in the Boston dance community and beyond. I am so excited to be working with them for my second time.”

Urbanity Dance returns to the stage for Residual, its culminating performance of the 2015-2016 season. The show is aptly named, presenting a collection of pieces that address the topic of aftermath.

“We want to explore what’s left, physically and emotionally, in the wake of tragedy and hardship. How do our bodies tell that story, in terms of what we can and can’t see?” says Betsi Graves.

Residual features both new works and returning repertoire, including “Flash Burn”, choreographed Andy Noble of NobleMotion Dance in Houston. Click here for a preview.

Urbanity Dance is thrilled to be collaborating again with Andy Noble. He set audience favorite Photo Box D (pictured above) which was featured last season, both at our ICA performance and the Spring Revue. Andy is co-artistic director of NobleMotion Dance and Associate Chair of Dance at Sam Houston State University. This will be the New England premiere of his critically acclaimed piece, Flash Burn.

Andy’s performing career includes six years with Repertory Dance Theatre (RDT), where he performed in over forty choreographic works by such noted masters as Martha Graham, Merce Cunningham and Jose Limon. His company, NobleMotion Dance, was recently awarded Houston’s Best Dance Company by the Houston Press. Additionally, his choreography has been selected twice for the National Dance Festival at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC. Andy was named one of Houston’s 100 Creatives by Houston Press.
