The 2017 show marks the ninth installment of Rhythmically Speaking’s annual production featuring work by local and national choreographers creating jazz and American vernacular dance. This year’s production, exploring how rhythm and groove serve as means to both escape and connect, will feature the work of Karla Grotting, O’Calla Joslyn, Kaleena Miller, Erinn Liebhard (RS Artistic Director), Laura Osterhaus, Jeffrey Peterson (MN-bred, PA-based) and Abigail Whitmore.

The show runs at 7:30pm on August 17th-19th and also at 2:00pm on the 19th at the Illusion Theater (8th floor of the Cowles Center). For more on each choreographer and the history of this production series, visit rhythmicallyspeakingdance.org.
