“I am absolutely honoured to accept the role of Artistic Director of Moonhorse Dance Theatre. I have followed and admired the growth of this company built under the beautiful and generous vision of Claudia Moore since its inception. Moonhorse Dance Theatre has represented to me over the years, a welcoming space for established and senior artists to take risks, uphold excellence, and present work that holds the nuance and insight that comes with age, expertise, and life experience. I am excited to continue the nurturing and support of those artists in the generation above mine, that through so many movements lay the foundation of what the dance community, in all its diversity, is today. I am also elated that I have been granted the opportunity to cross this bridge into senior artistry with my Gen-X peers. I look forward to fostering our voices as we continue to grow and create. I look forward to working with the artists that I have known and admired over the years and greatly anticipate getting to know those I have not yet discovered. What a gift to be able to enter this role as our community comes back together after the past few years. I cannot wait to see everyone again.” – Allison Cummings
“On behalf of the Moonhorse Board, Management and Artistic Direction, we are delighted to pass the Moonhorse reins along to Allison Cummings. She has all the essential tools for her new role as Artistic Director – courage, compassion, vision and strong connections to the dance community, including a deep understanding of the younger “older and reckless” artists who are currently making a difference – on stage and off. These artists are deserving of our support and will astonish with all they have to share.Allison is already a leader and we’re excited to witness the creation of her Older & Reckless dreams as part of an exciting new generation of lifelong dance artists. To our audience, patrons and participants – your support will be welcomed and appreciated as Moonhorse gallops into the future under Allison’s passionate leadership!”– Claudia Moore and the Moonhorse team
