Theater, Dance & Media presents an evening length performance facilitated by Sidra Bell and LROD, who have been in residence with the Harvard Dance Project ensemble converging around concepts of space, time, force, and shape. This durational landscape cultivated from collaboration and possibility are woven together with the constant mobility of movement research, artistry, and intention. Together we will explore multiple states of presence for embodying futures and negotiating the reality of outcome.

ABOUT HARVARD DANCE PROJECT
Focusing on professional movement exploration, choreography, and process, the Harvard Dance Project (TDM 90DR) cultivates invention, captures imagination, and fosters the courage of artistry. The Harvard Dance Project offers the enrolled company an in-depth experience working closely with choreographers’ diverse methods and practices in the dance production universe while simultaneously examining the intersections of dance and performance studies, choreographic processes, and intermedia. The course is facilitated by Professor LROD.

Generously supported by the Bromley Innovation Fund for Dance at Harvard University.
