I'm not sure what happened to the summer being the down time for performing arts ...this month has been beyond busy with performances and opportunities. Here's one more chance to get some summertime dance action before the real season begins: Open Flight Studio's* Flight Deck performance, featuring creative offerings from movement-based artists awarded studio residencies from May to August each year. This year's recipients are Jessica Jobaris and Rosa Vissers, and they will be joined by invited guest Victoria Jacobs.
The focus of Flight Deck is on the creative process, so what gets shown may be raw, random and/or unpolished...or not. It all depends on where the artists are in the development of their project. Open Flight itself is a bit of an adventure, located on the 2nd floor of an unassuming building on The Ave, up a curved stairway into a surprisingly airy studio. It's a nice intimate space to crawl inside a choreographer's mind for a while.
Shows will be Sat & Sun August 27 & 28, 7pm, followed by discussion.
