New troupe highlights contemporary ballet

The Madison area has a new dance company that grew out of an unlikely place ? the baseball diamond of the Milwaukee Brewers.

Ashley Grantin and Sara Willcutt-Rohs, the leaders of the new Madison Contemporary Vision Dance, met a year-and-a-half ago while performing with the Brewers? Diamond Dancers. More than ?just? cheerleading, the dance team performs before and after games, and during the 7th inning stretch.

(Grantin is assistant director in charge of dance for the University of Wisconsin-Madison Spirit Squad)
