Hope Stone Dance Company kicks off the 2013-2014 season with its fourth annual “Lemonade Stand,” complete with popsicles and frozen treats, and staged in Simon Gentry’s fish bowl of a studio – the Photobooth on Montrose. Based loosely (and we mean loosely) on Edvard Munch’s famous painting, Macaulay Culkin’s 15 minutes of fame, and America’s endless love of ice cream, this piece is quite the desperate journey into getting what we want.

Hope Stone Kids is the brainchild of Jane Weiner, the founder of Hope Stone, Inc. For more than 10 years, this program has helped at-risk youth through the power and freedom of art, transforming them into inspiring and confident performers. Hope Stone Kids awarded over $200,000 in scholarships last year to more than 550 Houston and New Orleans youth between the ages 6-18 years. The program is designed to create pride, hope and personal ownership by opening doors to kids in the field of dance, music, theater, performance art and photography.
