To register please follow the link, amandaselwyndance.networkforgood.com/events/77067-open-rehearsal-fall-2024. Join the artists and board of Amanda Selwyn Dance Theatre for an intimate look at the creative process of our developing work, Awaken. The FREE Open Rehearsal will be followed by Wine and Cheese. Awaken will weave original material with resonant choreography from Selwyn’s 25 years of rich repertory. The piece will explore the struggle between distraction, a quest for certainty, and living in an embodied present. Selwyn’s athletic choreography will dramatize the complexities of staying grounded, connected, and present in a modern world of endless distraction, consumerism, and convenience. Shifting sections of the work will zero in on our relationship with ambiguity, control, trust, overthinking, vulnerability, and resilience. Awaken will unpack Selwyn’s 25 years of choreographic work to create a compelling evening of dance. Awaken will premiere in full May 8-10.
