ST. LOUIS - Oct. 7, 2015 - PRLog -- Max & Louie Productions (http://maxandlouie.com/) in association with Ken Page, announces the casting of Alfredo Solivan in the World Premiere of Ken Page’s Sublime Intimacy (http://maxandlouie.com/sublime-intimacy.htm). The second show of Max & Louie’s two-show season will run from December 4th through 20th at the Kranzberg Arts Center. For information or to purchase tickets, call 1-800-838-3006 or visit maxandlouie.com.

Sublime Intimacy is a remembered tale of five friends, whose lives were touched and changed forever by their love of the dancer and the dance. Written and directed by Page, Sublime Intimacy is a story that will be told through visual art and dance. St. Louis musician Henry Palkes has composed an original suite of music, which will underscore the play.

"I'm very excited to bring forth my love of dance through the stories of these five people who share the same,” said Page.  “I'm also thrilled that our central sixth character, The Dancer, will be brought to life by New York's extraordinary Alfredo Solivan. An accomplished artist, he is making his St. Louis debut. Thrilling!"

Solivan is a professional dancer from New York, who has worked with the Dance Theatre of Harlem, and for companies such as Emery LeCrone and Dancers, Intermezzo Dance Company, Allison Cook Beatty Dance and several others.

Page is well-known in St. Louis for his many stage and screen appearances as a performer, including the original Broadway productions of Cats and Ain’t Misbehavin’; the voice of Oogie Boogie in the cult classic, Nightmare Before Christmas; and many roles at The Muny.  His directing credits are equally impressive.  Most recently he conceived, wrote and directed the four-time St. Louis Critics Award-nominated Café Chanson for Upstream Theatre. Nominations included Best New Play and Best Director. Ken also wrote the book for his one-man autobiographical stage show, Page By Page, and has staged numerous productions around the country.

“Producing Sublime Intimacy is something very new and exhilarating for us,” said Stellie Siteman, artistic director of Max & Louie Productions. “Participating in the creation of an original production—and one that involves choreographers, a composer and a celebrated dancer—adds rich levels to the experience. Under the direction of Mr. Page, we know that we’re collaborators in the genesis of a truly breathtaking theatrical event.”
