Fremont Danceworks was created in the fall of 1999 by Mary Reardon and Vivian Little as a means for aspiring young dancers to come together as a performing group. The company dancers have had the opportunity to experience master teachers from around the country. They have studied with Carla Maxwell, Artistic Director of the Limón Dance Company and with various Limón company members, Kitty Daniels, Chair of the Dance Department at Cornish College of the Arts, Keith Sabado, formerly of Mark Morris Dance Company, David Leventhal currently of the Mark Morris Dance Company and Donald McKayle, Professor at UC Irvine and a pioneer of American modern dance.
The audition for Fremont Danceworks is held in the spring each year and the selected dancers sign contracts for the summer dance intensive and the following school year.
In addition to their appearance in The Steadfast Tin Soldier, A Story Ballet, the company will present a spring dance concert at the Shorecrest Performing Arts Center on April 15 & 16, 2011. Stay tuned for more details about their April concert. For more information about Fremont Danceworks Company, please call Dance Fremont! at (206) 633-0812 or e-mail info@dancefremont.com.
