Directed and choreographed by Ali Kenner Brodsky and Andy Russ

Loopholes is an anthology of new dance works, created by the students of TDM 90CR, exploring culture, conflict, and carbohydrates. Prompted by visiting lecturers Ali Kenner Brodsky and Andy Russ to consider the dancing body in the digital world, Judy Epstein ‘27, Crystal Manyloun ‘26, Matondo Mihalache ‘29, Salem Shubash ‘29, and Izzy Wilson ‘26 have created a multi-course, multimedia spectacle that interweaves strands of live performance, projected video, and hybrid experimentation.
