When fall turns to winter in Miami, Floridians miss a new chill in the air and the changing color of the leaves. Dance NOW! Miami’s Program I is timed this year to emphasize that inflection point when they showcase Random Pattern of Falling Leaves.

 Random Pattern of Falling Leaves is a fiery and poetic work that will transport audiences to a northern landscape as the wind slowly strips the leaves off the trees in preparation for winter. Jointly choreographed by DNM’s Artistic Directors Hannah Baumgarten and Diego Salterini, this breathtaking work also features striking costumes and sets by Marylin Skow and Bruce F. Brown.

The evening of contemporary dance also include the world premiere of Tethered and a DNM trademark classic piece, Chronicles. Tethered, choreographed by Hannah Baumgarten, is a world premiere contemporary ballet quartet, with music from long-time collaborator Davidson Jaconello, with Felix Rosch. The piece explores the ways in which we are all tied to each other through relationships and communities. Chronicles is as DNM repertory work choreographed by Diego Salterini about the perfect moments of falling in love. It was slated to be restaged in 2020 but due to the COVID pandemic, it was postponed.
