dANcE ExchANgE Straight to the Source: A Dance Making Experience, Part I Monday, December 10, 2012 . 7PM Kogod Theatre
Dance Exchange Artistic Director Cassie Meador and Resident Artist Sarah Levitt will collaborate with participants to create movement, text and song drawn from personal stories, current events and physical explorations. Part I will include a performance of two Dance Exchange works followed by a movement workshop with the company. e performance is open to the public with no advance reservations required; participants in the movement workshop will register in advance and commit to both Part I on December 10 and Part II on December 11.
Participants from Part I of this series will continue to work with Dance Exchange company members to bring their ideas to the table in shaping new material inspired by the performance they've seen on December 10. Audience members will work together in a new collaborative experience. At the end of this second movement workshop, participants will present the movement they have developed and will share perspectives on the experience. FREE
Both parts of this performance/workshop series will offer a first-hand glimpse into Dance Exchange's process of generating, crafting and performing material that uses the body as a resource for expression, discovery and questioning. FREE
