Cause Description:
Vision: Eidolon is a high-quality, chamber-sized contemporary ballet company performing innovative works by emerging choreographers. Since its inception in 1999, the company has earned a reputation for developing an accessible, unorthodox, and fun-loving form of dance. Eidolon’s vision demonstrates how a dynamic combination of music and choreography can be heightened by a fusion of multicultural elements in creating work with a strong appeal to the diverse segments of our society. Eidolon’s programs are eclectic; they aesthetically link ballet to modern dance, drumming, tap, jazz and punk challenging audiences with new, innovative dances that, while rooted in the past, can be reconfigured and fused with contemporary motifs. Our concerts challenge popular conceptions of contemporary ballet, taking it to the next level and leaving our audiences entertained and wanting more. Objective: Founded by three freelance dancers, Eidolon Ballet In Concert, was incorporated in 2002 and received its 501c3 status in 2003. Eidolon provides its dancers with an opportunity to explore ways to collaborate with colleagues and experiment with innovative ideas. The work of its artists ranges from studio showings, children’s performances and small theatre presentations to those that can be staged in a large theatre with orchestra. Eidolon is dedicated to making dance more accessible to the community at large. We bring the magic of dance to local audiences and showcase works that have a strong mass appeal.
