New Dances

DAYSTAR/ROSALIE JONES (Pembina Chippewa-Cree) presents “An Indigenous Trilogy,” three stories of creation told in the form of ‘storydance.’ These include “The Woman Who fell from the Sky” as told by the Haudenosaunee; “Spirit of the Wood” which accounts for the creation of the seasons; and “Becoming Myself” on the symbology of achieving womanhood. Daystar/Rosalie Jones specializes in “native modern dance” as seen through the perspective of ancestry, cultural values and a lifetime of experience in North American Indigenous dance and music. She is recognized as a “pioneer” in the field, being mentored by Mexican American choreographer Jose Limon. 

In 1980, Rosalie Jones founded Daystar: Contemporary Dance Drama of Indian America, now considered to be the first native (Indigenous) modern dance company in the USA. Thirty choreographic works include “Wolf: A Transformation” (Anishinaabe)…
