Ralph S. Lemon

Ralph Lemon is a director, choreographer, writer, visual artist and curator, and the artistic director of Cross Performance, a company dedicated to the creation of cross-cultural and cross-disciplinary performance and presentation.  Lemon's projects expand the definition of choreography by crossing and stretching the boundaries between Western, postmodern dance and other art forms and cultures. For each project, he builds a team of collaborating artists—from diverse cultural backgrounds, countries, and artistic disciplines—who bring their own history and aesthetic voice to the work. He has been a major influencer across disciplines for 40 years.
