Special invitation! Join us in the studio on Monday, September 9, 2024 as we prepare “You Are Here/Usted Está Aquí” for the ENVZN24 festival.
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.
“You Are Here/Usted Está Aquí” incorporates oral history interviews into the soundtracks of a suite of solo dance performances. These heartfelt and poignant dances artfully illustrate our neighbors’ stories in meaningful ways. ENVZN24 is the first site for this project, which will continue to develop throughout the fall during a residency at the San Diego Airport and at other locations.
SUGGESTED DONATION: $10 - $50 per person
