Last night was our tech rehearsal for Being Together. We got a chance to work with the musicians, work out our lighting issues and go over the timing for our Joyce SoHo performances. Marlon from dance-tech was there to capture the evening, and put together this video. Thanks for coming Marlon! We’re looking forward to opening this Thursday night and hope to see you there!

The Sundance Channel is featuring Misnomer with a “Spotlight” page on their website with an exclusive interview and article created by Sundance about the works and creative process of Misnomer Dance Theater. During our residency at the Baryshnikov Arts Center, a production team came out to our rehearsals and shot the footage. For a sampling of what you can see on the site, you can watch the clip below. Or visit Sundance’s site for the full feature.

As you may know, we’ve doing a lot of film and video work, recently collaborating in choreographing a video for Bjork, as well as working with Tronic Studios to create the motion-capture trailer for ResFest, a prominent film festival. We firmly believe that there are lots of interesting ways in which choreographers and film directors can create together, and we hope this Sundance Feature becomes part of this ongoing dialogue.

If you have thoughts or interests in an interdisciplinary project, please let us know.

Dancers in the wings

Well, it’s done. At least for now. Along with Keigwin & Co., Future Perfect played to a full house at Skirball. The power of the press… We had a NYTimes review and Kristin Sloan’s great write up on The Winger. While Skirball did a great job in putting a diverse program together, I’m sure these pieces probably had something to do with it as well . . .

Keigwin’s pieces were phenomenal – if you missed the show, I hope you’ll have another chance to catch this incredibly lively company. Keigwin did a great job in combining popular culture with experimental dance. The dancers were not only graceful and athletic, but they were acrobatic as well. I really enjoyed the infusion of the Capoiera choreography throughout the second piece, Natural Selection.

These photos below were taken during our Saturday performance of Future Perfect. I was hoping to upload these during the show, but there was no cell phone coverage backstage. While there was no cell phone coverage, there was wifi coverage. Maybe next show, I’ll stream video via Quicktime Broadcaster! Has anyone tried that before? In any case, enjoy the photos!
