Co-founded by Centenary University dance and theater professors, Maureen Glennon Clayton and Lea Antolini Lid, Outside the Lines intention is to present immersive site-specific dance experiences throughout the state of New Jersey. Their idea of moving dance out of the theater and into the unique landscape of the Garden State, creates an imaginative way for audiences to view and think about dance. 

 

“In September of 2020, I approached Maureen with the idea for her company to do an outside concert at Centenary,” said Lea Antolini Lid. “We had done some successful outdoor vocal concerts and theater for Young Audiences performances, and I immediately thought why not dance as well!” The two professors brainstormed and put together a site specific dance concert featuring works choreographed and performed by Centenary students, alumni, dance faculty and professionals.

 

“We had an idea that came to fruition during a pandemic and now we want more.  I want our new site specific dance series to support dance companies, choreographers and dancers, by curating different site specific events throughout our gorgeous state of NJ. I want audiences to support dance and why not in front of beautiful landscapes and architecture that NJ has to offer?” said Glennon Clayton.

 

Outside the Lines will feature works from the following professional dance companies: moe-tion dance theater, XY Dance Project, Nikki Manx Dance Project, Freespace Dance , Ariel Rivka Dance, Art of Motion Dance Theatre, The Moving Architects, OR  dance project, and choreographers Alexandra Williamson and Heather Warfel Sandler.
