nEW 2009

Melanie Stewart Dance Theatre presented the 2009 nEW Festival, a program that supports choreographic projects through rehearsal and production processes, comprised of community classes, workshops, and informal showings. Throughout the year, nEW serves as an incubator for new work and offers some of Philadelphia's most innovative dance artists an opportunity to engage in choreographic research and development in a collaborative environment. During the showings, audience members are invited to preview the work, meet the artists, and learn more about the nEW Festival residency program.
