This performance will captivate your imagination and touch you deeply. We have assembled an all-star international cast of dancers to bring you a new world-class dance event in Austin that will move and inspire you.

During the two week residency period, these artists will be sharing their gifts with the Austin community not only through the performance, but also through surrounding events, including open rehearsals and demonstrations. This will provide the opportunity for all involved, audience, artists, and fans, a chance to learn and grow together.

      Such a small company-such big accomplishments! Voice Dance Company dancers are big on talent, skill, and ability. It was an effective blend of classical technique and modern expression. The dances evoked every emotion from giddiness to depression. The men were strong, lifting the women making them look weightless. Each made it look easy to execute the intricate choreography. Each brought his or her own personality to their work. The pas de deux were especially complex. The choreography was demanding yet evocative, showing the tenderness and brutality of relationships. “My Witness” was the work danced in the second half of the program. Sons Of The Never Wrong performed live. The focus was on relationships, traveling from the bliss of love to the agony of separation. During the question/answer period after the performance, Gina Patterson to a question about what a certain piece meant, she said, “It is more about the feeling.” It was beautiful. Collapse

      Opening with an iPod dance, the evening is snap, crackle and pop. Gina Patterson's new dance company, Voice, is not afraid of sensuality either. She's explores deep erotic imaginings, our longings, our innate sexiness as humans with a deeply embodied and jubilant spirit. Bodies caress, croon, and collide in whimsical fashion. The evening makes you feel lucky to be human--and alive. Gina Patterson's Voice Dance Company is down home Austin with cosmopolitan flare. Her dancers come from around the world dance and dance to the live band music and harmonious vocalists. The combined synergy right on this up-close and personal stage makes for a magical and intimate evening. It's not academic dance; it's dance out of the box. Bravo, Gina, glad you're a homegirl. You had the audience laughing, sighing, and awing. That's why we go out for theatre and sit in seats--to get up and realize we're bigger than we ever realized. I'll take my boyfriend to your next show! Collapse
