Gladys
created by Deborah Black and Margot Basset
light design by Tim Cryan
Deborah Black teams up with Margot Basset to create, Gladys, a dance-theatre trio for two performers. They sing and dance a series of planned and scored events, which result in a spectacular and surprising love triangle. In addition to Gladys, Black, shares her solo adaptation of Deborah Hay's I'll Crane for You and Bassett presents, thistle, an original solo duet.
about the artists.
Deborah Black grew up in rural Western Pennsylvania, received a BFA in dance from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts with a second major in Art History, and commissioned two solos from Deborah Hay - The Runner (2007) and I'll Crane For You (2008). She has collaborated with Karl Cronin, Genevieve Beth Grady, Christianne Hommelsheim, Sasha Welsh, and has danced for Diana Crum, Naomi Goldberg-Haas, Anneke Hansen, Susan Rethorst, and Peter Sciscioli. Black, with Karl Cronin, received funding from the Jerome Foundation in 2010 to travel to Childress, TX to research the town, the people, and its landscape. She studies the Alexander Technique with June Ekman and has trained with the SITI Company.
