Kim Robards Dance (KRD) energizes and entices audiences with the driving physicality and broad dynamic range of the beautifully crafted choreography of Artistic Director Kim Robards. Artistic athleticism stretches dancers' bodies to the outer limit of physical stamina while stretching audiences' perceptions of modern dance from artistic to athletic. Fascinating spatial explorations of toned bodies are trumped only by the surprising strength of this dynamic company. KRD, based in Denver, Colorado, is a leader in contemporary dance in the American West with its sophisticated yet accessible modern style which bridges the gap between ballet and modern dance. Experimenting with dynamic force and momentum, Ms. Robards' work takes an aesthetic journey through movement landscapes covering vast amounts of space.
