The Emerging Choreographers Showcase is devoted to the exhibition of emerging artistic talent as company dancers and choreographers, joined by visiting artists, produce the annual production under the artistic direction of DRDT company member, Joshua L. Ishmon. The showcase creates the opportunity for emerging talent to debut and mature their voice, while simultaneously providing an environment in which established dancers and choreographers are able to experiment in taking their work in new directions. The 2016 showcase culminates with a preview performance taking place on June 30th at the Old Town School of Folk Music, an evening that allows for both performer and audience to share an amazing night of dance in a very intimate setting.
