Due to a recent expansicn in our Computer Systems Technology Diploma program, we still have a limited number of seats available for hard sell? And how do you market both to the same crowd? “Wf people go to a movie and they dan‘t like it, they'll go back. It’s the same with a concert. But I’ve talked to people who have seen modern dance once and said it was so strange they’d never go back,” says Deep Cove choreog- rapher Desirée Kleeman. . Dance, particularly modern dance, has traditionally been one of the more difficult sells. Companies in this town are lucky if they can attract 100 people a night to an event — and that’s to see some of the best performers in the country. Even then, dancers often make up the bulk-of the audience. While many in the profession are finding it hard to feel encour- aged about the future, Kleeman refuses to let it darnpen her enthu- siasm or diminish her plans. Tomorrow night, she’s inviting the entire North Shore community to a mid-summer festival of dance that runs until Saturday, Aug. 6 at the Deep Cove Shaw Theatre. The program, which she assures will be as “accessible as possible,” features Vancouver dancers Mark Lavelle, Katherine Labelle, Anne Cooper, and Kleeman, who will dance two new solos. “It’s a chance for people who may not want to go overtown, to see some really good modern dance,” says the Pasadena-born Kleeman, who believes the more you expose people to dance, the more likely audiences will take initial positive performances to heart and become loyal dance enthusiasts. Kleeman has a lot riding on the event’s success because, apart from a small grant from the Vancouver independent Dance Association, the shaw is coming out of her own pocket. She actmits she’s feeling a little nervous about the financial risks, ““f people don’t come, sure, I'll lose money. But you have to do things like this. You have to jump in and take a chance. “t talk to people who bitch and moan and hem and haw and say how they can’t do anything,” she says. “My response is, you have to go out and make things happen.” Taking chances is an integral part af Kleernan‘s personality.
