Enjoy a rare look at Eva Dean’s “Sonorous Echo.” Step into the movement, imagery, and atmosphere of this long-unseen cinematic work.

“Sonorous Echo” premiered in 2007 at Dance Theater Workshop in New York City, and now, for the first time in 19 years, audiences can step back inside its haunting, playful, and visually rich world. We’re thrilled to share this 6+ minute video reel—a vivid glimpse into the mystery, humor, and magic of the work, brought to life by Alloy Orchestra’s evocative score and by an extraordinary cast of Movement Collaborators.

As we experience the height of summer with beautiful sunny days juxtaposed to torrential downpours, we remember last fall when we celebrated our 40th Anniversary. If you weren’t able to join us for that special performance, we invite you to take a look at the archival slideshow that was presented during the event. We hope you enjoy this glimpse into a memorable celebration. Catch the whole video (and more) on our Vimeo page!

EDD was delighted to collaborate with Miss Porter’s High School Travel Team Dancers on the creation of “Midnight Maze.” Eva Dean choreographed the new work with Katie Moncebaiz serving as Rehearsal Assistant, drawing on reimagined movement vocabulary from LIQUID SILVER: Labyrinth, which premiered in 2024 at Union Street Dance in Brooklyn, NY. Enjoy this rehearsal video reel featuring the spirited and talented dancers of Miss Porter’s Travel Team Dancers.
