Company C Contemporary Ballet review: 10th season

The emphasis was on the contemporary as the intrepid Company C Contemporary Ballet embarked on its 10th anniversary season Friday night at the Lesher Center in Walnut Creek with a peppy, agreeable program showcasing works by a few of the latter-day choreographers with whom the troupe has cultivated relationships over a decade of performing.

The evening's most effective moments came wrapped in Paul Taylor Dance Company alum David Grenke's "Vespers," a duet for Jacqueline McConnell and Oliver Freeston to Tom Waits' version of "Waltzing Matilda."
