Title- Wolf Talk
Intention- To share with viewers an experience of being human that is more primal than our everyday way of existing in our world. By exploring the physical qualities of dogs and wolves in movement the hope is that the audience will feel more connected to the animal world. The text is to demonstrate the lack of connection humans are experiencing with the natural/animal world.
Objects and Tools Needed- One male and one female dancer, two musicians, a violin, a drum, a projector, and an outdoor space to perform.
Description- A site specific work performed at Glen Echo Park. The dancers begin back to back howling. This sound will draw an outside audience to them. The dancers will begin to move and dance using contact improvisation as a structure as well as trying to move through various movement forms they discovered in rehearsal. At some point the text will begin and they will perform their dialogue. The dialogue is a game called “20 questions”. Then they will return to the movement portion of the dance. The musicians will play music, a violinist and a drummer. The piece will end with one mover petting another. A video of wolves may or may not be used during the piece. The piece is approximately 20 minutes long.
When- Sunday Nov 13, two performances, times to be determined.
Where- Glen Echo Park
Oct 1 we will visit the park and explore outside performing possibilities.
