Great dance performances are like celebrity deaths; they happen in threes. At least they are this Friday, when you'll have to choose among the skillful moves of three distinct dance companies. The Miami Dance Festival 2010 begins with Ori, choreography that reflects the Afro-Brazilian religion of Candomblé, performed by Miami-based Brazz Dance Theater and the Brazilian Companhia C. See Ori at 8:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday at the Byron Carlyle Theater. The festival has performances through May 29.
Fri., April 9, 8:30 p.m., 2010
