Still Going...

Coming up in two weeks- the CONCEPT series: 3, our informal and intimate salon of contemporary dance. For this installation, we've got four more lovely and talented guest artists: Todd Eckert, Deep Waters Dance Theater (Amara Tabor-Smith), Aura Fischbeck Dance, and Maxine Moerman Dancetheatre.

On our end, we're having fun bringing back un[covered], the first piece we made for WestWave three years ago and a snippet from Scripting Intimacies (also from 2005). Also on the program will be excerpts from our newest work-in-progress Fallout, which will have its full premiere at the Singapore Fringe Festival in January, and which we showed the beginnings of at our recent home season.

For those of you who've been following our emails and blog entires, you'll know it's been a long, busy summer for the company. Yes, we're tired. Very very tired. But it's also been exciting to revisit so many of the works that we were proud of and that very few people got to see the first time around and to concurrently work on a new piece that has involved choreographic departures and risks.

More thoughts and details coming soon. After at least a few big mugs of coffee... :)
