"Having worked with each international company over the past two decades, the questions provoked continue to resonate, inspiring me to bring us all together for the first time to revive the exchange. We will explore the myriad ways there are to lead a life, what internal and external pressures or freedoms are upon each of us as we navigate the streets of our cities, and how to remain vulnerable to the discoveries ahead." - Margaret Jenkins
Global Moves brings together four dance companies from different parts of the world to respond to the growing international atmosphere of fear, xenophobia, and isolation.
This evening-length dance performance, led by Margaret Jenkins Dance Company, will include contributions from long-time collaborators from the company's 50-year history, including Paul Dresher and Joel Davel (composer/music), Jack Beuttler (visual design), Michael Palmer (poet/text), Rinde Eckert (text and performance), and Mary Domenico (costumes). The international dance companies will include Tanusree Dance Company from India, Yahui Lu and Guanglei Hui from China, and Kolben Dance Company from Israel, who will all be working together for the first time.
The event, featuring live music by the Dresher Davel Invented Instrument Duo, will take place inside and outside the Presidio Theatre in the historic Presidio of San Francisco, with portions of the evening happening on the Theatre's beautifully restored stage, as well as the outdoor plaza that opens to the national park.
