Open Rehearsal
Special invitation! Join us in the studio on Saturday, October 19, 2024 as we prepare “The Dulling Effect” for our upcoming concert, CULTIVATE.
Observe rehearsal with choreographer Christopher K. Morgan and the Malashock Dance Company Dancers. Stay for conversations, coffee, and cookies to provide input and learn more about the creative process.
Inspired by a 1934 Harvard study on how radio has a dulling effect on the higher mental processes of the listener, Christopher’s curiosity on how that dulling effect may have increased over the last 90 years of technology, and his concern that current political and legislative initiatives in the US are attempting to homogenize citizens, rather than celebrating their unique individual beauty.
