The Tennis Dances |
|
Louise Reichlin & Dancers burst into the public eye in 1979 with their first performance at the Anson Ford Theatre when "Reichlin created a sensation with
"The Tennis Dances" (Dance News). Over the years she has continued to examine our society from its most primitive nature to the emergence of the information age with
"The E-mail Dances"
in 1996. Through multiple performances for the 23rd Olympiad, a summer series at the LA Zoo, touring the US and Mexico with
"Dreamscapes". Reichlin has consistently created "probing and provocative" works. (Dance Magazine)

Most recently we created a shorter version of "The Patchwork Girl of Oz" that we toured with and performed here in Los Angeles. It was just presented by the Las Vegas and Clark County Library Department in two of their performing arts centers. We return to two other of their theaters in January 2018 with many of the dances with links in this newsletter. Our newest works are "A Jewish Child's Story" (see photos below), "Invasion" (begins the video at top of page and linked to "Invasion" photo above) and "Call From the Afterlife". Last year we did a complete revival of "The Tennis Dances" and added new material to "Tap Dance Widows Club" at the Bootleg Theater. We currently have a master contract with the LA Unified, and this spring had twelve residencies with about 200 workshops and 30 performances at schools in the Los Angeles area, both curriculum based and after school.
