Cori Kresge | Stephanie Saywell Take Root at Green Space!

Seraphim Airlines, a 30 minute dance work choreographed by Cori Kresge. Performed by Mariah Anton-Arters, Sienna Blaw, Miguel Angel Guzman, Cori Kresge, and Kristin Swiat. Quoting gestures from airline attendant safety demos, elevated by rigorous physicality and intentional precarity, five dancers embody roles as supernatural stewards offering choreography in case of an emergency. Original music composed by Eric Pitra. Costumes by Susan Julian.

There Was A House, choreographed and created by Stephanie Saywell, is inspired by themes pulled from Hansel & Gretel and navigates the sea of stories we tell each other about ourselves through a queer lens. Through heightened text, intricate character work, and the athletic conquering and division of space, three performers dive into a physical exploration of how stories are disseminated, shared, edited, censored, voiced, and left untold within the histories of our bodies. What causes us to leave home? What delight and terror do we discover in the forest of other people? And what bread crumbs lead us back? There Was A House is performed by Hallie Chametzky, Lucia Flexer-Marshall, and Aurora Vaughan, and features voiceover by Healy Knight and costume design by Hunter Dowell.
