Dancing Around Race

By

Hosted by Hope Mohr Dance: Dancing Around Race Community Engagement Gathering features Guest Speaker Barbara Bryan, Executive Director of Movement Research and independent performing arts producer, manager and curator.

The discussion will cover institutional thinking and models for advancing equity in the field, including:

  • Movement Research as both institution and organization–how does the language of equity work or change depending on who is speaking and who is present in the audience
  • The internal work that MR, as a traditionally white institution, has been doing towards equity, and the successes and challenges of that internal work
  • MR’s Artists of Color council
  • MR’s Board Committee for Racial Equity
  • How can this work remain artist-driven?

Friday, October 26th

The Feedback Showing 2019

By

Joe Goode Performance Group’s Feedback program is designed to offer an in-process response for local choreographers to have support in the development of new and experimental dance works. Five choreographers were selected for the 2019 program cohort, each receiving free rehearsal space at the Joe Goode Annex for development (among other benefits), as well as a shared feedback session with Joe Goode and JGPG Company Members. Read more about the Program here.

Presented by the Joe Goode Performance Group, The Feedback Showing is about putting pencil to paper and offering up impressions, thoughts and questions about the dance moment just experienced. Audience members will participate in the process by responding in real-time with written feedback. 5 Feedback Artists have created something deeply important to them, and The Feedback audience plays a crucial role in receiving & responding to their new works. It’s about listening to others and discovering new voices in the conversation. It’s about supporting the local dance theater community toward broad investigation and deep feeling.

2019 Artists: Brianna Torres, Jesselito Bie, Molly Matutat, randy reyes, Sydney Franz
