The ROMP! Festival of Independent Dance is happening later this month, starting with five days of free performances in Centennial Square August 20-24.
As well as facilitating a couple of Fresh-air Frolics (see next post!), I’m excited to dance in the improvised PRESENT/TENSE on August 24th:
PRESENT/TENSE 8
Dance and the Spoken Word
Sat. Aug. 24th, 6pm – 7pm
Free, at Centennial Square
From the ROMP! website: “Present/Tense 8 is our returning performance laboratory featuring writers and dancers. For those unfamiliar with the format of the show: Writers read selections of their work while dancers improvise – to the sound, syllables, and multiple meanings. Each dancer is only given the first and last line of the written work before stepping onto the stage – to create an electric collaborative laboratory between improvised dance and the spoken word.”
