WAILUKU — Maui’s contemporary dance company, Adaptations Dance Theater (ADT), will present its fifth annual “Bring it Home” dance concert on Aug. 11-13 at the Historic ‘Iao Theater, with showtimes at 7 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and 2 p.m. on Sunday.

The culmination of ADT’s performance programs, “Bring it Home” unites a professional cast of resident and guest dance artists to share their craft with their home community and celebrate the artistry of Maui’s own.

Coming back from a three-year, pandemic-induced hiatus, ADT is reaching for yet another milestone — presenting its first evening-length work.

As opposed to a compilation of shorter pieces, an evening-length work requires the physical and emotional endurance of the dancers to carry a deeper narrative that creates and resolves the complexities of a singular story. In preparation for this momentous task, Co-choreographers Hallie Hunt and Ali McKeon Pineo (who also serve as the company’s co-artistic directors) began exploring ideas with resident dancers during ADT’s “SEED” choreographic residency in May.

“The ideas are wild and whimsical, and include outrageous props that give each section a center piece,” Hunt said.

The “Bring it Home” residency with all eight cast members participating lasts just over three weeks and leads directly into performance weekend, fostering an intense and focused environment in which the full cast can contribute to the rest of the choreographic process.

This year’s cast features three guest artists whose ties to Maui range from the professional to the personal and back again: Wailuku born-and-raised dance artist Emily McKeon, previous Maui resident dancer Yasmine Lindskog Visanko, and dance instructor and choreographer John Barclay, who makes his “Bring it Home” debut this year. Full bios on each cast member can be viewed on the company’s Instagram@adaptationsdancetheater.

Tickets for “Bring it Home” range from $20-35, or $16-28 for students and seniors, and can be purchased at MauiOnStage.com. Audiences are welcome to stay for a Q&A session with members of the cast at the conclusion of each performance.
