Source & Flow: Dancing with Water & Land

I am a selected presenter at the LMDA International Dramaturgy Conference: Dramaturgical Landscapes in Banff, Canada in June 2023 with my collaborator Jen Shook, Assistant Professor of Theatre, Dance, & Performance Studies at Grinnell College.

Our workshop in the conference is titled Source & Flow: Dancing with Water & Land. We will present two devised collaborative performances filmed in and inspired by specific landscapes; capturing their history of human and more-than-human interactions, and how those interactions shape and are shaped by the land. These performance rituals are introductions to land and water, inviting audiences to see their landscapes anew, to experience deep time, and to let ancient rock portals see them too. Source & Flow is an invitation for site responsive, co-located, and on-the-spot group performance in Banff.
