WHO'S WHO IN THE COMPANY MOSES PENDLETON (Artistic Director) has been one of America’s most innovative and widely performed choreographers and directors for over 40 years. A co-founder of the ground-breaking Pilobolus Dance Theater in 1971, he formed his own company, MOMIX, in 1980. Mr. Pendleton has also worked extensively in film, TV, and opera and as a choreographer for ballet companies and special events. Mr. Pendleton was born and raised on a dairy farm in Northern Vermont. His earliest experiences as a showman came from exhibiting his family’s dairy cows at the Caledonian County Fair. He received his BA in English Literature from Dartmouth College in 1971. Pilobolus began touring immediately and the group shot to fame in the1970’s, performing on Broadway under the sponsorship of Pierre Cardin, touring internationally, and appearing in PBS’s Dance in America and Great Performances series. By the end of the decade, Mr. Pendleton had begun to work outside of Pilobolus, performing in and serving as principal choreographer for the Paris Opera’s Integrale Erik Satie in 1979 and choreographing the Closing Ceremonies of the Winter Olympics at Lake Placid in 1980. In 1981 he created MOMIX, which rapidly established an international reputation for highly inventive and often illusionistic choreography. The troupe has been touring steadily and is currently performing several programs internationally. The company has made numerous special programs for Italian and French television and received the Gold Medal of the Verona Festival in 1994.

Amanda joined MOMIX in 2014. WOODROW F. DICK III (Production Stage Manager & Lighting Supervisor) No, this name is not someone's idea of something funny to slip into the program. Woodrow, or "Woody" as he is affectionately called, gave up being taken seriously long ago. You won't believe anything that is written here so why should he even bother to tell you about himself? He has worked on various productions, some big, most of them small. This would have probably been the bio that gave you that smug satisfaction of recognizing an obscure production that no one else you came with has seen. But really, what's the point in listing all of that stuff and wasting space in this program when you still don't believe there's a guy out there named Woody Dick? JEFFREY MAIN (Production Stage Manager) is a graduate of the NC School of the Arts and began working with Momix in 2001. He is also a freelance photographer and video editor who enjoys seeing the world through a variety of lenses.

ing many at Torrington’s historic Warner Theatre. Jameson joined MOMIX in 2012. CHRISTOPHER LUBIK (Production Electrician) is a graduate of the University of Connecticut Construction Campus with a BFA in Technical Theatre.

Since then he has performed with Ruby Shang and Dancers at the American Dance Festival; Dancers Unlimited in Dallas, Texas; and with Daniel Ezralow’s Conspiracies and Collaborations at Dance Theater Workshop in New York. A highlight in Alan’s career was a solo performance in the Rome Colosseum, in The Night of Music, Italy Rada Film by Andrea Andermann in 1987. In July 1990, Alan performed in a three city International Etoiles Gala in Japan. He has recently formed his own sculpture/dance company and is creating new sculpture and choreography.

LONG REACH FOR THE ARTS

WHERE YOU INSPIRE LOCAL CHILDREN The Long Center is committed to sharing the excitement of live performances and our world-class entertainment facilities with diverse audiences. Thanks to donors at all levels, the Long Center is pleased to offer the Long Reach for the Arts community outreach initiative. Through Long Reach for the Arts, we donate thousands of tickets every year to Central Texas schools, as well as social and communitybased service organizations for distribution to students and clients.

From 2008-2016, Long Reach for the Arts has gifted more than $300,000 in tickets to 60+ organizations. Teachers and organizers report positive impact on young participants, including increased social skills and self-confidence. Through the generous support of donors like you, we can continue expanding our impact and helping give even more tickets to underserved community groups.

DONATE ONLINE at support.thelongcenter.org Qualified organizations can register on the Long Center website to be notified of ticket opportunities.

REDD CARPET INITIATIVE

Sponsored by 3M

WHERE YOU SUPPORT EMERGING LOCAL ARTISTS Your generous donation to the Redd Carpet Initiative helps local artists create, collaborate and inspire audiences. Gifts of all sizes provide Austin-based artists and arts organizations with access to the same exceptional performance spaces and equipment used by world-class artists who call the Long Center home. From 2013-2016, the Redd Carpet Initiative has awarded more than $415,000 in rental subsidies to 65 local arts organizations. The black-

box format of the Rollins Studio Theatre helps smaller community groups take their performances to the next level. Beneficiaries of the Redd Carpet Initiative include Austin Shakespeare, Pollyanna Children's Theater, Tapestry Dance, FUSEbox Festival, Teatro Vivo and Austin Improv Collective. Performances such as the Intergalactic Nemesis realized their dreams at the Long Center through the Redd Carpet Initiative before going on to perform a 60-city international tour.
