LOCATION
Saturday, May 31 3:00 PM
Rain Date: Sun., June 1st at 1 p.m.
Contrapose Dance, under the artistic direction of Courtney Peix, will
present eight sections of a current collaborative work with
scientist/photographer Larry Pratt via a grant from the NSF/National
Science Foundation. HoverDive is an evening length performance
made in collaboration with scientist Larry Pratt, musician Amber
Vistein, and costume designer Jennifer Varekamp. Considering elements of
fluid dynamics, chaos, and entropy -- all elements of Larry Pratt’s
oceanographic research -- the piece explores ocean life, communication
as seen in that environment, and the circularity of it all.
Quicksilver Dance, under the artistic direction of Mariah Steele, will
present three selections, choreographed by Steele. The Constant Effort
of Beginning, with original music composed by Ryan Edwards, celebrates
the cycle of ecological life. Caesar and Cleopatra imagines how the
storied relationship between these historical giants may have developed
into partnership and romance, while always remaining equals. And the
final piece, On the Threshold of Memory, set to original music composed
by Ryan Edwards, investigates the hazy space between
knowing/not-knowing, sensing/perceiving, visualizing/remembering the
internal world of our memories.
