Write Back Atchas – spring 2017

Ellen Chenoweth

thINKingDANCE will host three free  post-performance “write-back” events after performances in Philadelphia this spring. A Write Back Atcha is a post-show “talk-back” combined with a mini-writing workshop. Write Back Atchas   are a chance to practice writing and talking about dance.  

This spring our facilitators will be at the following events:

Friday, March 31, Parrot Talk , an original play by Julius Ferraro

Saturday, April 29, Tania Isaac at FringeArts

Friday, May 5, Aspen Santa Fe Ballet at the Prince, Next Move Dance

Some previous Write Back Atchas  occurred after Jerome Bel’s controversial Gala, and  David Zambrano’s Soul Project.

Dances from the Churn

Ankita

Bodies across generations resist being silenced.

A black-and-white photo of two dancers in a brick-walled room. One, masc-presenting, has long curly hair and peeks out at the ceiling, mouth slightly open in expressive thought, one hand bent to touch their forehead, shielding half of their face. The other hand rests against the center of their body. A second dancer stands to their left, mirroring this pose with face tilted all the way to the sky and taut arms.

Possibilities Within Pain

Ankita

Maybe…pain can make one whole.

A white person with curly hair, a beard, and piercing blue eyes shows half of zir face, covering the rest with a red dome shaped hat. Pain au chocolat is stuffed in zir mouth, and zir clothes are bifurcated, much like zir face––half outfitted in red and gold, and the other half in black.
