Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Steve Miller was a mainstay of the San Francisco music scene that upended American culture in the late '60s. With albums like Children of the Future, Sailor, and Brave New World, Miller perfected a psychedelic blues sound that drew on the deepest sources of American roots music and simultaneously articulated a compelling vision of what music and society could be in the years to come.

In the '70s, Miller crafted a brand of rock 'n' roll music that was polished, exciting, and irresistible. Hit followed hit in an endless flow: "The Joker," "Livin' in the USA," "Take the Money and Run," "Rock'n Me," "Fly Like an Eagle," "Jet Airliner," "Jungle Love," and "Abracadabra" among them. To this day, these songs are instantly recognizable when they come on the radio-and are impossible not to sing along with.

"X"

The tendency to make things whole.

5,6,7,8,9,10. Completeness in mathematics, ten implies the end and the beginning of sequence; ten can be a sense of whole by wrapping itself in power and force, in achieving and creating. Found in nature on ten fingers and ten toes, in games of children and adults, in the divine. Ten embodies a complete experience of the development of the first cycle of nine.

DTG’s Performance Company newest full-length production, “X,” is a collaboration of contemporary works from resident and guest choreographers inspired by the number ten. Each choreographic work presented draws upon their own feeling of completeness, achievement and coming full circle. From a playful game to the biblical descension of the Holy Spirit, “X” will captivate the audience, leaving them with a rewarding, enriching and truly unique artistic experience.
