Join us for the SLA Hidden City Festival*, Friday June 5th, 1:00-3:00

Submitted by jblock on Mon, 06/01/2009 - 16:18.

Copper and Iron streams are taking part in an incredible collaboration with Leah Stein, founder of Leah Stein Dance Company. Students took part in a two hour workshop at the Armory on 23rd Street where they were introduced to the process of “tuning” to a site, creating movement and sound that connect to a site, and using these elements to create larger performance pieces. The process was quite awe inspiring to watch.  

This week student groups are using the larger ideas of observation and expression to guide them in creating site-specific performance pieces that incorporate location, movement, sound, and (optionally) objects. Throughout the week they will benefit from Leah’s help and consultation. All performances will be within four blocks of the school. The performance schedule will be posted here before Friday. Come out to see the products of this wonderful process!
