SLOWBURN is excited to be back in Somerville for a performance at Rebel Rebel! The company really enjoys bringing dance to non-traditional spaces and experimenting with new performance environments. This show will mark the premiere of Exosphere, a new work that will also be featured in Seattle International Dance Festival this June.

SLOWBURN Dance is a contemporary dance company, founded in Seattle in 2019 by Artistic Director Meredith Pellon. The style of the company is grounded in Pellon's movement aesthetic, which focuses on small movements and sharp shifts with resonating aftermath. Pellon's choreography has been called "fresh and compelling" (Dance Informa) and "entertaining and unique" (SeattleDances). In Seattle, SLOWBURN Dance has performed at 12th Ave Arts, Gallery 110, Base, Muuttus Studio, Yaw Theater, Jack Apartments, Seattle Center and Columbia City Theater. In February 2022, the company's first evening-length work, Ours, premiered at Arts at the Armory in Somerville, MA. Their second evening-length work, Excavate, premiered through a residency at The Shed in Seattle, WA. Additional performances include Ten Tiny Dances® presented by The Dance Complex, NACHMO Boston, Salem Arts Festival and Dancing Through It - Expressions of Movement From the Pandemic, hosted by Celebrity Series of Boston.
