On Being
On Being
Choreography by Daniel Charon
6 dancers
25 minutes
On Being was created as a response to being able to dance together once again. After a hiatus from our usual day-to-day ways of working, it’s been exhilarating to step back into a familiar dancing world, flexing our physical and creative abilities again. On Being explores physical connection through partnering, lifting, sharing weight, and moving in space together. As we created this piece, there was a tangible sense of re-appreciation for the art form and what is embedded within its DNA––connection, community, and an awareness of those around us. There is such wonder in being able to connect––the mere act of being together has become such a wondrous thing. I hope that this piece can offer a sense of solace, an opportunity to reflect, and moments for your imagination to feel free.
