SOULSKIN Dance is proud to present a brand new work SATIN & SWING as part of their 4th Season in San Francisco. Artistic Director and Choreographer Adrianna Thompson seeks to engage audiences in a study of two eras, the 1920s and the present. Dance Mission Theatre transforms into a time machine, transporting us back to the 1920s. Glitz and glam sparkle from the dingy corners of a speakeasy. Raucous jazz blares, bringing bejeweled and sequined dancing flapper girls to life. An evening of indulgence has begun. The entry notes of Prince’s “Erotic City” ring in your ears, an echo from another time. Suddenly you notice the writing on the wall. The crash of overindulgence is imminent.

Adrianna Thompson’s choreography for SATIN & SWING is a mix of contemporary ballet and modern dance, incorporating stylistic cues from 1920s swing and erstwhile social dances. The music is a mix of newly commissioned work by Noh Salomon which links the iconic 1920s classics of Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington and Helen Kane (voice of Betty Boop), with the music of 1980s rock legend Prince. Thompson aims to draw parallels between the ‘80s musical icon and the artists who thrived in the 1920s; calling to attention his racial background, gender non-conformity, and rejection of the status quo. DJ CAMCON (Camille Conrotto) will design and live mix music on stage as part of the performance. The evening will open with two works created by guest choreographers: Robert Sund and Dylan Elmore.

Performances are March 10, 11 12, 2017 (Fri., Sat. 8:00 pm / Sun. 7:00 pm)
at Dance Mission Theater – 3316 24th St. (at Mission) in SF 94110 (24th St BART).

Robert Sund was a principal dancer with Pacific Northwest Ballet and in 1979 joined SF Ballet, where he performed solo and principal roles. In 1996 he choreographed his first full-length ballet, A Midsummer Night's Dream, for the Norwegian National Ballet. Mr. Sund has also created two award-winning ballets for TV: Womensong in 1990, received three Emmys including "Outstanding Entertainment Special;" and Blue Lair in 1992, which won another Emmy for choreography. Mr. Sund's guest teaching credits include: Frankfort Ballet, Netherlands Dance Theater, Stuttgart Ballet, Vienna State Opera Ballet, Ballet du Nord, Zurich Ballet, San Francisco Ballet, Birmingham Royal Ballet, Pacific Northwest Ballet and as company teacher for Smuin Ballets/SF.

Dylan Elmore, returning for his second season with SOULSKIN, is a former member of Batsheva Dance Company and an international dance artist who has performed works by Ohad Naharin, William Forsythe, Jiri Kylian and Angelin Preljocaj, among others. Currently London-based, in 2016 Dylan joined SOULSKIN’s dancers in SF for a two-week choreographic residency, creating a new work to complement Thompson’s eclectic Queen and Cash suites.

Three Virtuosic Cuban Male Dancers perform in Satin & Swing with SOULSKIN Dance.

Delvis Savigne Frinon, Edisnel Rodriguez Gonzalez, and Adonis Martin came to the USA together from Cuba for the first time in 2013 to perform in the Cuba Caribe Festival. Seeing the unique opportunity to perform and work with a variety of artists in San Francisco, Delvis and Adonis immediately decided to stay. Edisnel would visit many more times before settling long-term in 2015. The Cuban expats found guidance through friends at Dance Mission Theater as they made their adjustment to the new country. The technical, acrobatic and virtuosic skill exhibited by the Cuban male dancers, as well as their hard work ethic, put them in high demand within San Francisco’s dance community; while their congenial attitude and steadfast friendship make them a joy to work with. Collectively, they have performed with over 12 different Bay Area dance companies, and 7 international companies. They may occasionally look back wistfully at their native home, but they are fully vested in their dance careers here in the USA. When asked whether he might one day return to Cuba, Delvis replied with a hearty chuckle, “I’ll go back for vacation!”
