May 7's Program A features Attack Theatre's revamped "Trapped," a quartet exploring themes of isolation, set to original music by Japanese composer Somei Satoh; an excerpt from Philadelphia-based choreographer Kate Watson-Wallace's latest modern-dance work, "Store" (contains brief nudity), which looks at consumerism; and works by Point Park University dance faculty member Peter LeBreton Merz; Kaylin Horgan; and Dance Alloy Theater's Michael Walsh.
Program B (May 8) fea- tures two solo works choreo- graphed by former Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater dancer Sidra BeIL Bell will present her award-winning multi-media work "Conductivity" (2008), a 12-minute male solo in which Bell plays with the idea of little deaths" in our concept of "self" as we mature through life's stag- es.

Also on Program B are Bodiography artistic director Maria Caruso's "Intimate Liaisons Part Deux" - a look at coping with loss; "Puppet Tears," by Dance Alloy artistic director Beth Corning; a reworking of New York choreographer Jeanine Durning's "Re: Memory (2)," performed by LABCO's Gwen Hunter Ritchie and Slippery Rock University's Jennifer Keller; and a new work by Dance Alloy dancer Christopher Bandy.See the full content of this document
