Our hearts are heavy at Infinity Dance Theater as we announce the passing of Founder and Artistic Director Kitty Lunn. She once said, “I chose the name Infinity because it’s the symbol of never-ending motion.” Kitty put that principle into practice through her extraordinary career. Her legacy will endure through the countless students she trained and the many professional artists with whom she collaborated to produce works for dancers with and without disabilities. We are exploring meaningful ways to honor Kitty and her legacy, and we will share more details as they become available. (Artwork by Carol Davis / Photo by James Estrin)

We hope you'll take a look at this review (below) by The Dance Enthusiast, and stay tuned for details on Infinity's video streaming of this vibrant new work! 📷: Christian Whan

"At first glance, one might think Mexican painter Frida Kahlo and Scottish-American dancer Kitty Lunn have little in common. However, as Lunn asserts in her world premiere Frida Kahlo and the Dance with Death, the two women are more alike than meets the eye." — Cecly Placenti, New York
