Trip Dance present The Company of One tomorrow & Saturday at CanWest Global Performing Arts Centre.

WINNIPEG - Mick Jagger would do pirouettes before many modern dance choreographers would set their work to his rock tunes.

But Trip Dance Company artistic director Karen Kuzak decided The Rolling Stones were a suitable music choice for the third and final solo in her company's ninth show, The Company of One -- even though popular music isn't that popular with her colleagues.

"Usually choreographers don't -- well, I've definitely shied away from bringing anything into my work that has strong associations with people, using music very cautiously. In this instance, I went exactly in the opposite in this direction," says Kuzak of the solo performed by former Winnipegger Linnea Swan.
