Join Dandelion Dancetheater for a participatory performance exploring breath, slowness, Shabbat, cyclical time, sleep and dreams. Inhale. Exhale. Repeat will feature the work of the CSUEB Inclusive Interdisciplinary Ensemble, Bandelion, David Ryther, members of the Thingamajigs Performance Group, other special guests, and YOU! Audience members are invited and encouraged to watch, listen, participate in movement or sound improvisations, sleep, meditate, dream, snuggle and/or more...
There will be a participatory opening ceremony on Friday from 7:30 - 8pm and a participatory closing ceremony on Saturday from 8 - 8:30pm.
Come any time.
Stay as long as you'd like.
Inhale. Exhale. Repeat is a sequel to Dandelion Dancetheater's 2011 work WonderSlow, which was a very public and expansive durational work. In contrast, this will be intimate and contained, yet similar in terms of the diverse ways that people can participate. There will be a quiet area arranged at the center of the space with mats for meditation or
sleeping, hammocks to lie in and view from, and a number of ongoing "performance stations" that performers and audience members are invited to join. These will include:
 Flocking Dance Improvisation
 Breath based Musical Improvisation
 Solo Dance Corner
 Drum Time-Keeper
 Simple movement improvisations circling the space
In addition to the ongoing stations, there will be five "Focused Performance Times" taking place every six hours.
These are scheduled for: Friday from 8 - 9pm Saturday from 2 - 3am Saturday from 8-9am Saturday from 2 - 3pm Saturday from 7 - 8pm
These hour-long showcases will feature work by:
ï‚· Bandelion
ï‚· The CSUEB Inclusive Interdisciplinary Ensemble
ï‚· Thingamajigs Performance Group
ï‚· Patrick Cress and T-Bird Luv
ï‚· David Ryther
