Florida Dance Association will present the 26'" Florida Dance Festival from June 19 to July 3, 2004 In Miami and Miami Beach. This critically acclaimed two-week celebration of dance, considered among the country's most significant performing arts festivals, will present 5-7 nationally and internationally renowned guest companies and artists in teaching and performing residencies, showcase Florida's own diverse dance community, and attract audience members from Miami-Dade, surrounding counties and from across Florida to nearly a dozen public performances and events. Venues I Time.: While the Festival's education programs will be held in downtown Miami at New World School of the Arts, the majority of the event's public performances will be held in Miami Beach. Depending on construction schedules, proposed venues for the Festival's guest performing artists are the newly renovated Byron Carlyle and Colony Theaters. It Is hoped the Colony Theater will be the site of the Festival's opening and closing programs, with the Byron Carlyle Theater serving as the site of several mid-week programs. Performance dates for each planned guest company/artist are still being determined. Performlna ArtIsts: The Festival's eleven planned performances are scheduled from Saturday, June 19 through Saturday, July 3, 2004. Eight of these programs are planned for Miami Beach venues. Contract negotiations have been completed, or will be completed by November 30, 2003 for all artists. Guest artists and companies from outside Florida include: John Jasperse Company (New York), for Just Two Dancers, a duet work examining a multi-directional sense of perception; Pat Graney Company (Seattle) for the Vivian girls, a work inspired by a 15,000-page text and paintings by "outsider" artist Henry Darger; Israel's Vertigo Dance Company for British choreographer Adam Benjamin's The Power of Balance, a work with disabled and non- disabled dancers exploring both physical and metaphorical balance and what it means to lose it, find it, fight for it and maintain it. Vertigo is the featured guest company for daneeAble, a program within the Festival focusing on dance as a vital art form and a means of physical expression for people with disabilities. danceAble, produced in partnership with Tigertail Productions, has been a significant component within the Festival since June 2000. Other planned presentations include Milwaukee's Ko-Thl Dance Company, known for its authentic and progressive interpretations of contemporary and ancient African and African-American dance, music, and folklore; This Just In..., a new program featuring newly completed works or works-in-progress by Florida choreographers and, in keeping with our mission to promote Florida artists, Duende Ballet Espaflol, a Miaml- based flamenco-fusion dance company under the direction of Rosa Mercedes.

International students have attended from Canada, Mexico, Curacao, Columbia, Guatemala, Venezuela, Brazil, Peru, the Bahamas, Netherlands Antilles, Holland, Germany, England, Indonesia, New Zealand and other countries.
