"Medlyn deals in theatrical miracles! … He’s amazing!” - All Things Considered, NPR
“I use a variety of traditions: dance, theater, live music, show business, performance art, contemporary visual art, to make things happen in a room full of people.” – Neal Medlyn
…Her’s A Queen is Neal Medlyn’s fifth pop-star opus and the first installment in a two-part Britney Spears/Hannah Montana extravaganza, built around the idea and music of Britney Spears, purity, and non-sexual touch. There will be overlapping stories and bears and abstinence and unwashed hair and dance moves and knives and snakes and laptops and cuddle parties and babies. …Her’s A Queen features Neal and Carmine Covelli with live music from Farris Craddock.

“Describing them as elegant is a sort of easy way to go, they’re long-limbed and stunning people. I think it has more to do with the integration of how they think about the movement, how they solve problems movement-wise.” - David Neumann, quoted in The New York Times
Dance Gang was founded in 2006 as a performance outlet for dancers Kennis Hawkins and Will Rawls. Dance Gang's projects include site-specific, guerilla-style performance, gallery installations, and stage work. Their newest stage work, Dog Breaks, will set the stage as the evening’s opening act. Expect their signature blend of direct audience engagement and archly spurious logic as they reference pop iconography, dance, and perform live music.
- …Her’s A Queen is commissioned by Dance Theater Workshop’s Commissioning and Creative Residency Program with support from the Jerome Foundation, The Ford Foundation, the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency, the New York State Council on the Arts, the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, and the Jerome Robbins Foundation. This presentation is made possible, in part by the generous support of Judy and Steven Gluckstern through the David R. White Producers' Circle.
