Men dancers at the highest levels of artistry will enliven modern, contemporary, urban, jazz, and ballet genres. The choreographers this year all hail from or have ties to Seattle—Daniel Ojeda of Ballet Idaho, prolific local Beth Terwilleger (seen at 12 Minutes Max and Converge Dance Festival), Elise Meiners Schwicht (SALT II Contemporary Company, Converge), Nahshon Marden (Sensible Theatre Company, the Equalux Fundraiser), and Joel Hathaway (performer and choreographer for the Missouri Contemporary Ballet company).
