Production Notes

× About the Show
DEPTHS is a new project by Dance Workshop that examines our relationships with water—its capacity to hold memory, cause catastrophe, and hide secrets in its depths. Using a research-based approach to devising dance theater work, the members of the company explore the ways we process what we cannot control by asking, ‘what can be done when the issues we face in our lifetime feel insurmountable?’ As with past years, Dance Workshop members use collaborative choreographic methods to create evocative and emotionally complex worlds. In collaboration with fellow design students, Dance Workshop continues to explore rich media, scenic, and costume design possibilities—creating rich layers of sensorial experience. This season, the company worked with Palestinian American dancers Leila and Noelle Awadallah, who created a scene within the evening-length work using methods from their shared practice and emerging contemporary dance form, Body Watani. Over the four-day residency, Leila and Noelle engaged the company in physical, spiritual, and social practices rooted in their personal ‘body watani’, or body-as-homeland. Run Time: Approximately 90 minutes no Intermission
