Tap dancer Michelle Dorrance’s original Myelination premiered at New York City Center’s 2015 Fall for Dance Festival. Gia Kourlas of The New York Times responded: “Ms. Dorrance has choreographed a glittering closer that needs to have a second life...please, someone, make that happen.” Dorrance Dance will make that happen. Michelle Dorrance plans to create a new, evening-length version of Myelination— featuring 9-12 dancers, 4-8 musicians, and original music by Donovan Dorrance and Gregory Richardson—to premiere in the 2017-2018 season. Estimated artist fee: $35,400- $43,660/performance (plus housing & backline), $46,000-$60,000/weekly (plus housing & backline).
