"Looping" at the Choreographer's Canvas
My second time presenting a piece for the Choreographer's Canvas, and my choreo is growing by leaps and bounds! The first year, I debuted "The Lady in the Street." It was my first true narrative and my longest piece. A man seduces a woman and brings her back to his place, but once he gets her in bed she flips the tables and becomes the aggressor (aided by her vengeful fury henchwomen). About 5 minutes with a cast of 4. "Looping" is a different beast.
9 dancers. Over 5 minutes long. 4 individual vignettes that combine to illustrate an overaching theme. It was an ambitious dance. I loved creating it with some fabulous performers and I love the story it tells. It's emblematic of the work that I enjoy doing. About human connection. Contemporary. Romantic. Real. I got a fantastic response from this one and I'm so proud to share it with the world.
Without further ado...
