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.
We have currently paused this program’s activities in the Annex, and the rescheduling of the Showing has yet to be determined. Stay tuned!
One Show Only: date TBD. $10-25 / NOTAFLOF at the door
