^^^t^vT-^n^ Regional Dance America/MidStates Festival May 17-21, 1995 • Fort Wayne, Indiana Sponsored in part by: Capezio/Ballet Makers, Inc., American Airlines and Covington Travel, Inc. mix, IP VETO AM021OX Regional Dance America was founded in 1988 to promote the artistic development of dance companies throughout the United States and to continue the important work of the National Association for Regional Ballet. Built on the legacy of visionaries Dorothy Alexander and Anatole Chujoy, the NARB contributed to the decentralization of dance as regional companies grew in stature and quality nationwide. Under the leadership of Doris Hering, and with the encouragement of Ben Sommers, its membership grew to five geographical areas and over two hundred companies including more than two dozen nationally recognized professional groups. As we enter a new decade, RDA is dedicated to fostering quality, promoting education and nurturing the talents of dancers and choreographers while exploring new horizons. 35 Performance Advisory Committee Maria Crandy Robert Barnett Edward Villella Choreography Alfred Terlizzi Dennis Nahat jane Cifford Muriel Topaz Saeko Ichinohe Mel Tomlinson CONFERENCE: July 21-Aug. 2,1995 David Howard Robert Lindgren Florence Warren at The University of Iowa in Iowa City, Iowa Lyle Cashion Jon Rodriguez Rochelle Zide-Booth Sally Bliss Ben Stevenson Maria Vegh 1 vJrl Dancers, Composers, Choreographers, Teachers.

The Museum of Art hosts nationally and internationally known exhibitions; Cinema Center is an independent sponsor of films that might not otherwise be seen in Fort Wayne; and the Fort Wayne Philharmonic is celebrating its 50th anniversary season. Fort Wayne offers many other options for entertainment, shopping and dining out. I hope you will have an opportunity to take advantage of some of the many attractions while you are here. All the best to you this week as you exchange ideas, learn from master teachers, observe both new and seasoned choreographers, practice your art and compete for i scholarships. Fort Wayne looks forward to sharing your "Brilliant Moves" as you bring us performances by the best in the midwest this week. Sincerely, IftKVc Paul Helmke Mayor of Fort Wayne May 17, 1995 Dear Friends: On behalf of Arts United and the northeast Indiana arts community, it is my pleasure to welcome you to Fort Wayne and the Regional Dance America/ MidStates Festival. It is entirely appropriate for this year's festival to be held in Fort Wayne, a community known nation-wide for the variety and excellence of its cultural opportunities. Along with one of the premier regional ballet organizations in the nation, our city boasts over fifty other groups serving nearly every cultural taste and interest — from classical music to contemporary art, independent cinema to children's theatre — banded together under the Arts United umbrella. As you enjoy the artistry, collegiality, and competition of the next few days, I hope you will also enjoy the hospitality that I know will be extended to you by the citizens of Fort Wayne, and most especially, its arts community. We are delighted that you have chosen to grace us with your Brilliant Moves. Cordially. Geoff Gephart President, Arts United May 17, 1995 Hello and welcome to Brilliant Moves '95! The Fort Wayne Ballet is most pleased to welcome you, the participants, and you, our audiences, to Regional Dance America's MidStates Regional Ballet Festival, "Brilliant Moves '95-" As we take part in the festival activities this weekend, let us remember the words of the Southwest Region: "This is a time to renew old friendships and make new ones...to network and exchange ideas.. .to learn from and be inspired by master teachers.. .to experience dance as seen through the eyes of both new and seasoned choreographers... to share our love of dance with the community and enable them to experience outstanding performances by the companies of the MidStates Region.. .to witness once again the breathtaking beauty of dancers' bodies and souls as they move together to the rhythm of music in space." Unless one has been directly involved with hosting a festival, it is difficult to imagine how much behind-the-scenes planning is involved for about a period of 18 months. To the Fort Wayne Ballet staff, committee chairs, the office staff, and many, many volunteers, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. "Brilliant Moves '95" is happening because of you. So stand up, take a bow and enjoy the fruits of your labor!
