Elizabeth Rose

Is a unique performing artist with a diverse movement background in physical disciplines including modern dance, Bharatnatayam, Filipino martial arts, Commedia dell’Arte, yoga, gymnastics and stunt training.

Elizabeth began dancing professionally in her native Austin, Texas in 1998. She co-founded her first company, REALM danceproject, at 19 years old. She left the company to its founding members when she left Austin for NYC, and it is still in operation today. As a dancer, Elizabeth has enjoyed training and performing with Darla Johnson, Deborah Hay, Jacques Heim, and many remarkable artists and colleagues at Dance New Amsterdam in New York. She has trained on aerial apparatus in the U.S. with Elie Venezky, Elsie and Serenity Smith, Eric Newton, Jukka Juntti, and others.

Her choreographic style is marked by graceful fluidity, easy precision, high sensuality, and stunning articulation in the air. She always emphasizes artistry above spectacle and never fails to make moving and intimate connections with her audience. Elizabeth believes that collaboration is the soul of performance, loves a good artistic or physical challenge, and is always excited to work with other performers and directors.

She is rently producing new works in Seattle, WA, where she is a company member of the Aerialistas, Seattle’s original all-girl aerial gang. She also collaborates locally with members of Manifold Motion and Circus Contraption, and outside of Seattle with Kansas City-based Quixotic Performance Ensemble. She also freelances, creating commissioned works for festivals, events, film, and television.
