About Me (human/individual)/interests, work..short bio/ THis is the most important. It is the only way to know that you are not a SPAMBOT!Be generous!: boomerang is a fearlessly physical, poetically nuanced dance and performance project comprised of Kora Radella, Matty Davis, and Adrian Galvin. Recognizing the body as an evolving repository for both physical and psychological life, boomerang sifts through and siphons from their rich, eclectic histories. Davis’s and Galvin’s foundations as movers arise from aggressive rollerblading, soccer, snowboarding, tennis, hockey, ultimate Frisbee, and long-distance running. Guided and provoked by Radella's gifts for idiosyncratic movement invention, unpredictable phrasing and choreographic skills, boomerang delivers unfailingly committed, physically intense, vulnerable explorations of how human histories might be sensitively layered, distorted, and recontextualized so as to yield new movement vocabularies and articulate the complex breadth of interpersonal relationships. They have been referred to as the “punk Mozarts of dance.”

Kora Radella is the artistic director/choreographer of boomerang and Double-Edge Dance. Since the project’s development in 2012, boomerang has performed at Triskelion Arts, Center for Performance Research, Dixon Place, Cleveland Public Theatre, and Palace Theatre of Playhouse Square in Cleveland. Radella’s work with DEDance has been performed in the U.S.A. and throughout Europe in cities such as Aberdeen, Amsterdam, Basel, Barcelona, Brussels, and London. She has been noted for her use of "awkward grace," the integration of idiosyncratic motion with musical phrasing, compositional form, disorientation with point-on-precision, and performance depth. Radella’s movement research delicately teeters near the edge of being out-of-control, emphasizing physical necessity and a psychologically precarious balance. In 2012, a quintet featuring Matty Davis and Adrian Galvin, Cry-i-i-ing, was performed at The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts as part of the National College Dance Festival. Radella holds an MFA from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and a Graduate Diploma from the Theater School for New Dance Development (SNDO), Amsterdam.
