Backwoods Performance
A glimpse into the journey of Melissa Rector and Jim Bunting who having spent formative years in small town West Virginia were both lead to the city of Philadelphia and the inception of the Koresh Dance Company.
This is our tribute to a place where a coal miner mentality and a relentless work ethic are standard practice.. and to a director in Roni Koresh who recognized our potential, grit and strong resolve enough to give us the start of a career in dance.
Watch as Melissa and Jim show their history through dance in two segments of performance.

------------------
Koresh Dance Company revisits their Spring Home Season, June 2-5, at the Suzanne Roberts Theatre on Philadelphia’s Avenue of the Arts. Artistic Director Roni Koresh will present his latest completed work that explores what drives an artist to create. Set to original scores by John Levis and Sage Deagro-Ruopp, Muse is inspired by those amazing individuals that possess the ability to inspire a creator to find aspects of themselves that would otherwise go unexpressed. This evening-length is a love letter manifested in a physical, divine projection; a symbol of endless desire for the wholeness in the artist. The work magnifies the interdependence of this relationship, where both, muse and artist, are trapped in this frenetic dance that is as turbulent as it is exciting.
