“There Might Be Others” presented as part of La MaMa Moves! Festival, May 15–18, 2014

We performed There Might Be Others with Senaz Demirel, Pierre Guilbault, Cori Kresge, Vincent McCloskey, Christopher Ralph, Anna Schön and Tan Temal. Working in the tradition of open scores, this piece is created in performance. The dancers begin with a collection of movements, tasks, rules, games and contingencies; the choreography unfolds as the individuals respond to changing situations. Over the next year the piece will be developed in Canada, Poland and Turkey and I hope premiere the full-length dance with an international cast in 2015.
