EIGHTH WEEK:
04.14.2012
This weekend’s rehearsal came after the excellent news on
Thursday that a venue and a performance date have been set! The performance
will be held at the Zamani Gallery in Georgetown (3145 Dumbarton Street NW,
Washington DC). The Zamani Gallery features a wide selection of different
pieces of Afghan artwork and craftsmanship from many parts of Afghanistan (http://www.zamanicollections.com/index.html), and we very
much look forward to working with the Zamani Team who have been very kind to
offer Afghan dresses and live music to accompany the dance the evening of the
performance. After having the opportunity to visit the gallery yesterday
(Friday), I am very much excited to begin rehearsing in the space!
The official performance information is as follows:
Date: April 29, 2012
Time: 5:00pm-7:00pm
Location: Zamani Gallery,
3145 Dumbarton Street NW
Washington, DC
20007
We look forward to seeing you there if you are able to
attend!
By way of rehearsal, this week we worked on thinking about
how to rearrange the dance some to fit the space we will be performing in.
Below, please find a brief video detailing the basic format and structure of
the dance. Not all dancers are present in this video and the video serves as an
informative video diary more than as a video displaying final performance
material.
Video from rehearsal (rough format).
We, as always, welcome any thoughts or perspectives you may
be willing to share!
