DANCE AT RED EYEFriday-next Sunday: The New Works 4 Weeks Festival at Red Eye Theater wraps up next weekend with new creations from two fresh voices in the dance community. Blake Nellis premieres "Unrelated," a kinetic argument based on the premise that how we move is part of who we are. To further persuade, he's lined up some of the more intriguing movers in town, including Amy Behm, Roxane Wallace-Patterson and Sharon Picasso, among several others. Jenny Pennaz will premiere "Silver" (pictured), which uses live and on-screen movement to tell the story of a woman who delves into her past through a series of revealing old photographs. Pennaz will be joined by dancer Kari Mosel and violinist/composer Kale Baglyos Reed. (8 p.m. Thu.-Sat., 7 p.m. next Sun. $8-$15. Red Eye Theater, 14 W. 15th St., Mpls. 612-870-0309. www.redeyetheater.org.
