Hey everyone!
It's been a while but ATD is getting back into the dance action. Since jumping into SINecdoche's performance in July and esther m palmer's Only Shallow People, I headed back to the homeland with my now husband and made our everlasting engagement official and topped it off with a much needed sun drenched vacation in Jamaica. But don't you all worry - I'm not changing any names on the business front. (Alex)andra Taylor Dance will still read loud and clear, here and anywhere I can show it.
A sad departure for ATD is founding member, Emily Leonard, who is back out in California soaking up all of the wonderful opportunities in the dance world on the west coast. Couldn't keep talent like that locked down in one place for too long. ATD is down to one singular member, but I know that we'll cross paths again in the future.
The next short and sweet performance is this Saturday bright and early at the EstroGenius 2011 Women in Motion: BODIES fundraiser conference. I'll be diving in again with Esther m Palmer and Erin Cairns Cella as we revisit Only Shallow People and "straddle the
boundaries between performance and workshop through improvised dance
inspired by the relationship between the unique and the universal body,
and between the experiential and the visual body."
Gesel Mason will also show Women, Sex, & Desire: Sometimes You Feel Like a Ho, Sometimes You Don't. "Part talk show, workshop retreat, comedy sketch, and dance performance
that examines how women navigate sex, desire, choice, and perception. It
encourages dialogue around the struggles, humor, and pleasure we
experience as sexual beings."
Check out the site for details.
The next few projects for ATD are in the works with TransForm Dance Collective, Marcie Mamura, and Erin Cairns Cella. More details on these soon!! I'm also hoping to have some highlights from my work in progress with Emily from Alexandra Beller's Choreolab showing from June.
Rock it out artists!
