Indigo

Indigo, an improvised dance performance for eleven dancers, is a search for the thread that interconnects the sublime and the pedestrian; for the color that imbues both dye and sky. The work is the debut of the Sea <> Bus dance company, uniting dancers from two different ensembles---one from Seattle and one from Columbus, Ohio---who share a common language of practiced scores, yet speak individual physical dialects. The dancers compose in real time, responding to one another and to the environmental context of set, sound, and scores.

In witnessing an improvised performance, the audience can feel themselves drawn into the world of the dancers spontaneous creation and creative problem solving. The goal of Indigo is to immerse the audience in an experience of beauty, mystery, and inspiration---opening, from everyday life, a window to the extraordinary.
