The Inwood Dance Company has been selected to perform on the Gala at the Southeastern Regional Ballet Festival in Montgomery, AL Saturday, May 9th. Adjudicator, Margo Sappington chose the company’s new work “perhaps” by choreographer, Lauri Stallings during her adjudication tour in February. Sappington described Stallings’ work as and intense and dense work full of surprises, which seems “shot from a gun”. This is Inwood’s third consecutive performance on the SERBA Gala performing Stallings’ works. Stallings’ past two works doublespeak and Port of Call won the National Choreography Recognition Awards. Director, Denna Smith and company will leave for Alabama on May 6th taking part in 3 days of master classes, workshops and performances.
