Performing Arts: Dance DanceWorks Chicago: Lunch-Time Dance Bytes

Julie Nakagawa's keen eye for talent and brilliant coaching skills produce mature dance from her ambitious, young sextet. A casual, exciting start to the weekend, her in-studio previews give audiences an up-close peek at works-in-progress. This afternoon, the company performs Etude by Parsons Dance Company alum Robert Battle (more of his choreography is on the way in coming months), and discussions with the dancers follow. Before you leave, be sure to sign up for the email list — in addition to full concerts, the organization frequently hosts a variety of informal showings.
