Center
Dance Ensemble (CDE) was created in 1988 by the Herberger Theater
Center as its resident modern dance company. The company is
responsible for major performance runs during the season as well as 25
weeks of rehearsal. CDE has performed throughout Arizona,
including at the Scottsdale Center for the Arts, the Joseph City
Center, Pima Community College Performing Arts Theater, The University
of Arizona Centennial Hall, and the Stevie Eller Dance Theater.
CDE was chosen as one of five Arizona dance companies to participate in the Arizona Commission on the Arts' Dance on Tour project and has been on the Commission's roster since 1988. Other dances performed by the company include Slaughter on Tenth Avenue and Nuage by choreographer Cliff Keuter, Rising and It All Boils Down to Me by Chicago choreographer Tim O'Slynn, Snow Queen, Hamlet the Ballet, La Llorona, and The Attic by Artistic Director Frances Smith Cohen. Major works for CDE have also been choreographed by Ballet Arizona's Donald Dadey, Toronto-based choreographer Michael Montanaro, and Robin Allen from Vancouver. |
