Cunningham Repertory w/ Brandon Collwes

Cunningham Repertory Class will be a chance to learn excerpts from Merce’s vast repertory spanning many decades including the last several years of his life. We will be building a “MinEvent” which is a shorter “Event.” In his own words, Cunningham wrote, “Presented without intermission, this Event consists of complete dances, excerpts of dances from the repertory, and often new sequences arranged for particular performance and place, with the possibility of several separate activities happening at the same time—to allow not so much [for] an evening of dances as the experience of dance.” This summer, the dancers and I will create a brand new dance using Merce’s revolutionary steps.
