Miller wins Bessie

Bebe Miller, widely acclaimed choreographer and professor in the Department of Dance, was honored in September with a coveted "Bessie" award in New York City. She won a special Bessie award for choreography at the 17th annual New York Dance and Performance Awards at the Joyce Theatre. Miller, who earned her MA in dance at Ohio State and now heads The Bebe Miller Company in New York, also received two Bessies during the 1980s. The award is named after the legendary Bessie Schšnberg, and is the dance equivalent of the New York theater community's Tony Award.

Catherine Turocy, a dance alumna of Ohio State, was honored with a Bessie award for sustained achievement. She is artistic director and co-founder of the New York Baroque Dance Company.

Miller's award honors Verge, her collaborative piece that premiered last year in New York. Verge made a clean sweep at the awards program by also winning Bessies for music, lighting and set design. Miller's company will present Verge to Columbus audiences Feb. 14-16, 2002, in Sullivant Theatre.

Miller has been making dances for 20 years. Her interest in finding a physical language for the human condition is a connecting thread in her work, stemming from Two, a duet made with choreographer Ralph Lemon. She has worked with many noted composers, visual designers, lighting designers, theaterdirectors and writers.
