Kate Wallich + The YC: Wallich has been doing her homework, spending time experimenting in the studio, as she’s been working on choreography for her first full program. Her style has an inner motor that drives the movement along through a series of moments both lovely and strange. For Super Eagle, she’s been working with Andrew Bartee, who’s branching out from his work with Pacific Northwest Ballet to explore some other options. SANDRA KURTZ Velocity Dance Center, 1621 12th Ave., 325-8773, velocitydancecenter.org. $15–$25. 8 p.m. Thurs., Feb. 13–Sun., Feb. 16.
