Write Back atcha! tD partners with FringeArts in this years’ Festival

Megan Bridge


WRITE BACK ATCHA!  

 
thINKingDANCE will host three FREE post-performance “write-back” events after performances during the FringeArts festival this September. Write Back atcha is a post-show “talk-back” combined with a mini-writing workshop, where we will guide audience members through an exploration of the language they use to describe dance. Write Back atcha provides an opportunity for audiences to deepen their engagement with the work on view as well as hone their writing skills with mentored feedback. Questionnaires with simple prompts will be provided to all audience members before the show. Participating audience members’ responses will be collected after the workshop and collated into a crowd-sourced “review” of the performance, which will be published the next day on thINKingDANCE’s website.

 

The event dates and locations are as follows:

 

September 9th, Still Standing You by Pieter Ampe & Guilherme Garrido I CAMPO, 7pm at The Painted Bride

puppetry and dancers speak with the body

Under a spot light a hand in a white glove is held up as though a small figure is walking. It wears black rimmed glasses with a big plastic nose and fuzzy eyebrows. The arm of the puppeteer is barely visible.

OO-GA-LA Reimagined: punk, queer, and drop dead gorgeous

Performer Ishmael Houston-Jones balances on his left foot, his right hand slightly extended forward, an expression of concern on his face. His pants look acid-washed in white and light blue, and on the front of his hoodie is painted a big brown face with wide open eyes.
