HQ REVIEW: The Big Muddy Dance Company’s final concert of its 23/24 Season unveils its new “IDENTITY” as Saint Louis Dance Theatre

Identity, an evening-length show by The Big Muddy Dance Company, was performed at the Catherine B. Berges Theatre. Program C consisted of three pieces, Come...The Sun Doesn’t Wait by Omar Román de Jesús, Notes on a Farewell by Tommie-Waheed Evans, and PlayFolk by Bradley Shelver. At the top of the show Executive Director Erin Prange took the stage to share some of the plans for the company in their next season as well as to introduce one major change. In the season ahead The Big Muddy Dance Company will transition to a new name: Saint Louis Dance Theatre. Described in their already updated website as a “repertory dance company that showcases high caliber artistic experiences” which aims to be “an instrument of optimism through inclusivity, collaboration, and artistic excellence,” we look to see the continued unfolding of Artistic Director Kirven Douthit-Boyd’s vision for the company in the season ahead.
