 t Date End: 2009-10-24\n\nHope Stone Dance Company under the direction of 
 artistic director Jane Weiner will present the world premiere Village of W
 altz on October 23 & 24\, 2009\, 8:00 p.m. on the Cullen Stage at the Wort
 ham Theater Center Downtown.\nVillage of Waltz\, set to all live music\, i
 s an exquisite evening length dance & performance piece\, choreographed by
  Jane Weiner. The piece takes a turn from the linear walk of life\, the ba
 ck and forth and back and forth\, and directs the motion into a circular a
 nd cyclical pattern. Village of Waltz presents itself into another time an
 d place: Past? Present? Future? It is an examination of time and the cycle
  of time: a piece that attempts to reconcile the enjoyment of life. It is 
 a look at the circular pattern time takes and it is a study that time has 
 complete contentment in producing itself: time.\nThe piece is set complete
 ly to the live compositions of Peter Jones. Jones's musical creations are 
 based upon his many years of work as pianist\, composer\, teacher\, and pe
 rformer in the field of modern dance. The music is a blending of innovativ
 e rhythms with open and inventive harmonic progressions. Also performing w
 ith the company will be guest soprano Ana Trevino-Godfrey\, adding her voc
 al talents while musicians Chris Howard\, Terrance Karn and Noel Martin co
 mplete the musical ensemble.\nPerforming on stage are Hope Stone dancers/p
 erformers: Bonnie Collins\, Roberta Cortes\, JoDee Engle\, Patrick Ferreri
 \, Spencer Gavin Hering\, Christian Holmes\, Danny Magner\, Lindsey McGill
 \, Joe Modlin\, Candace Rattliff\, Penny Tschirhart\, and Brit Wallis. Als
 o collaborating with Weiner is Bessie award winning lighting designer Roma
  Flowers and set designer David Graeve.\nOne vital part of each evening is
  the offering of 400 free seats to at risk children and youth from local H
 ouston schools and after school programs. Completely underwritten and impl
 icit in the mission of Hope Stone\, Inc. is the objective of reaching out 
 to children who don't often get the opportunity to see or participate in d
 ance and theater. Providing free seats at these performances is one way Ho
