New Work! Let's Go!
So once again a
process begins :)
This time around I'm working on an all male piece.
I'm not too sure where
I'm going with this right now. I have 5 wonderful dancers: Juel D. Lane, Telly
Fowler, Donovan Herring, Keon Thoulouis, and Kevin Guy. It's really cool to be
in the space with them because we're all friends :) They understand me and my
process- which I sometime don't understand myself, lol!
I'm really interested
in the theater aspect of dance, so I'm currently investigating the balance
between dance and theater. In this new work, called Matchstick, I want
the phrase 'dance theater' to really be evident in the movements and
interactions of the dancers.
In this work, the
dancers are placed in the space with a table and 5 chairs. Whenever I use props
in my pieces, they are usually stationary. I want the look of my works to be
very pedestrian. There might be simple movements here and there, but no too
'loud' where the props are propelling the dancers. I want the opposite to
happen and give the audience the feeling of seeing real people interacting with
each other.
We're all having a lot
of fun and look forward to this new journey.
