“This work is the first iteration of a new collaboration between dancer/choreographer Adele Nickel and lighting/production designer Kyle Rucker. It marries live performance and video projection to prompt such questions as: When does “movement,” a fundamentally defining feature of life, become something we start to call “dance”? Who decides where and when this boundary is prescribed? And what might this line of questioning reveal about our collective assumptions about what constitutes dance, or beauty, or art?”

Join us next week for our final Mind The Gap of the season! DSH member, Lori Yuill, of The TerraForm(ed) Collective, is presenting Nature Stories. We hope to see you next Tuesday, May 19, in Matchbox 2 supporting local artist. Secure your seat today.

“Nature Stories uses dance and individual stories as a way to understand the value of protecting local ecology. Dancers in this work share moments of joy and connection to nature. These stories are woven together through improvisational scores and a shared movement practice.”

“This trio explores the invisible labor of carrying responsibility before it is asked, inspired by the experience of being the one who holds things together. Through shifting weight, interruption, and near-collapse, the dancers navigate the space between care and obligation. The work lingers in moments of hesitation, when support is expected but not acknowledged.”
