Tanniqua-Kay Buchanan: “Farewell Sonata & Reprise”

“Farewell Sonata & Reprise” examines the fall and climb of womanhood and its non-linear relationship and cycle with loss and grief. It explores the labor of black feminine mourning as demonstrated in the wake of Ahmaud Arbery’s killing. The side by side of a white dancer and a Black dancer performing the same fractured choreography emphasizes the differences of how identification with Arbery affects the embodiment of grief. While the Black dancer makes appearances in her white counterparts' frame, the white dancer eventually fades away. This leaves the Black woman on her own to reprise the persistence of loss in her lived experience.

Brian Bowers: “REVERIE”

The past can be an unreliable narrator, and the future is simply a shifting reflection of where we are right now. Driven by choreographed movement, original music and sound, REVERIE is an experimental visual narrative that seeks to question and explore. An ensemble dance casts guides us through the delicately narrated introspective, inner dialogue that an emerging artist is having with time itself. Is it true, what they say, that life is but a dream?

Paul Rabinowitz: “Magnolia Moon”

An intimate reflection on the seasons of love through the eyes of two New Orleans artists caught in a complicated romance. Looking back on their time together, Ayva & Max must follow their hearts either towards each other or towards freedom. Experimental dance poetry short by Georgia Usborne & Julia Discenza, based on the poetry / prose piece 'Little Gem Magnolia' by Paul Rabinowitz, with original Score by Richard Sears.
