The company will present Twister in the 2012-2013 NC Dance Festival Tour. Twister is a high octane duet that abstractly explores the game Twister within a post-apocalyptic context. I made the duet in 2007 and am looking forward to re-staging and slightly re-designing it. Renay Aumiller, an exquisite dancer, will be joining the company for the 2012-2013 season and will be featured in Twister. I will be auditioning additional dancers – please check back soon for details.
Movement Research Open Performance Series. Wednesday evening 8 pm. ART/NY South Oxford Space in the “Great Room”. 138 South Oxford Street between Atlantic Avenue and Fulton Street. No reservations needed and admission is free. A suggested donation of $3 or more is asked of those able to contribute.
I’m presenting a work-in-progress of my duet titled Stuck in Time. Dancers Allie Lochary and Kara Griffin perform athletic and elegant movement with a touch of whimsy. Karl Green designed beautiful costumes inspired by the 1920′s and sound designer Michael Smith’s score weaves Fats Waller music with sound manipulation to create a unique soundscape.

2012 Greensboro Fringe Festival – 10th Anniversary. Thursday 8pm, Friday and Saturday 6 pm. City Arts Studio Theatre. 200 North Davie Street. Greensboro, NC. In celebration of the festival’s 10th anniversary all shows at the City Arts Studio Theatre will be free with a suggested donation to the artists of $10.00.
I’m premiering When the World was Round a new solo where dynamic athleticism meets intimate velocity. I’ve emphasized physical invention, expressive clarity and detailed musicality to create a multi-sensory experience for the audience. Dancer Jason Aryeh, new to Greensboro via New York and Ghana, expertly dances this expressive solo. Percussionist and composer Sandy Blocker creates a powerful and haunting soundscore.
I am thrilled to announce that kearns dance project will be included in the next North Carolina Artist Directory!
The NC Arts Council dance panel reviewed the applications and evaluated them on the basis of artistic merit, quality and depth of experience, web presence and function, and communication skills. The directory will live on the Arts Council’s website in both on-line and .pdf formats. The council will be working on the directory over the next few months.
The directory is a valuable resource for a variety of organizations to hire artists to work in their communities. So…book us in 2012!!
