“Putting Out The Welcome Mat’ with Ellen Sinopoli

Ellen Sinopoli of The Ellen Sinopoli Dance Company talks with Hudson Mohawk Magazine’s Andrea Cunliffe at the local sidewalk juice bar in South Troy. They talk of the celebration of 35 years the ESDC.

In honor of its 35th anniversary, ESDC is making 35 visits to sites around the Capital Region inviting audiences to have an up-close and personal experience with dance. Performing on a large mat of interlocking squares around which the audience gathers, the dancers perform works from the company’s repertoire of over 90 dances along with new ones specifically created for this series. There’s no admission charge, no lighting, no frills…but lots of movement invention, excitement and fun for all ages! Each of the 35 performances will feature a slightly different program — no two will be exactly the same!.

Performances begin with Friday, September 19, 2025 at 6:45 PM Universal Preservation Hall 25 Washington Street, Saratoga Springs, NY 12866

Saturday, September 20, 2025 at 3:00 PM Hon. Karen B. Johnson Central Library 99 Clinton Street #2, Schenectady, NY 12305
