KELLY BOND (DC)/<fidget> DOUBLE BILL PERFORMANCE
Kelly Bond, a guest choreographer from DC, will present Elephant, a work that aims to extend the performative body beyond the individual to examine the relationship between spectator and performer. It challenges the traditionally passive role of the viewer while addressing both the subtle and aggressive qualities as well as the possibilities of the group, herd and collective conscious.
<fidget> will present Mauri & Lorin: a performance-lecture on the synchronization of affect, a piece which "is threaded through with theoretical text delivered by a man and woman in skivvies who tremble, abruptly shift trajectories, and strike wacky or everyday poses. The performers are a clever dadaist pair..." (Lisa Kraus for the Philadelphia Inquirer). A woman spastically traverses the stage while a man, in his underwear, delivers a lecture on chaos theory, his mouth full of dry crackers that garble his speech. Surprising us with innocent, awkward, yet fully physicalized movement, Mauri and Lorin immediately draw the viewer in to their idiosyncratic world of behavioral coding, non-deterministic algorithms, and chalkdust.
