Soft Fences features performers Charles Campbell, Angharad Davies, Jim Domenick, Stephanie Stoumbelis and Megan Mayer, and video cameos with Elliott Durko Lynch & Greg Waletski. The Production team includes Sound Design and Production by Elliott Durko Lynch, Lighting Design by Heidi Eckwall and Video Design by Kevin Obsatz and Megan Mayer.
Soft Fences explores the euphoria and terror of space travel and the psychological states of astronauts as a concrete example of displacement through extreme journey, re-entry and orbit. Through a lens both personal and collective, using astronauts and space travel as a metaphor for personal change, it investigates imagery of isolation and the disquieting emotional experience of being stuck between gravity and momentum.
Soft Fences is supported by a Fiscal Year 2014 Minnesota State Arts Board Artist Initiative Grant. This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund. Soft Fences was researched with generous support from a February 2012 residency at the Maggie Allesee National Center for Choreography (MANCC), as part of a pilot partnership with the McKnight Foundation in collaboration with Springboard for the Arts.
