FREE Performance (Open Dress Rehearsal)

Presented by Mutual Dance Theatre and Arts Centers at Mutual Arts Centers- HARTWELL, Cincinnati OH

Nov 30 2023
FREE Performance (Open Dress Rehearsal)

Mutual Dance Theatre offers a FREE NIGHT of its Up-Close Series through a public open dress rehearsal on Thursday, November 30 7:45pm.

Thanks to special funding from Arts Midwest, Mutual Dance Theatre is able to open our doors for a free performance during our dress rehearsal on Thursday, November 30 for Up-Close, a series that sells out every year. We have special performances that are especially immersive, surrounding the audience’s five senses: two world premieres, by Countess V. Winfrey (of Dayton Contemporary Dance Company) and Stevie Lamblin (formerly of DCDC and Mutual Dance Theatre).

The free evening is first-come, first-serve, but we encourage you to RSVP seats at mutualdance.org/freeshow. The seats will be held up until 7:45pm, at which point, they will be released to anyone waiting for an opening. To read more about the dance to be performed (or buy tickets to the paid evenings), you can also go to mutualdance.org/upclose. Please spread the word for this fantastic opportunity!

Questions may be directed to hello@mutualarts.org or 513.494.6526.

ADMISSION INFO

IMMERSIVE DANCE THEATRE IN AN INTIMATE STUDIO SPACE

Featuring two world premieres by Countess V. Winfrey (of Dayton Contemporary Dance Company) and Stevie Lamblin (formerly of DCDC and Mutual Dance Theatre).

SOMEWHERE, THEY FREED THEMSELVES BY COUNTESS V. WINFREY
“Somewhere, They Freed Themselves” is a visual exploration of the ways we search for freedom. Visual projections and a large table create a landscape and provide hope that each viewer can also find their own spaces of liberation.

BE’S BY STEVIE LAMBLIN
Simply put, “Be’s” is about being…and bees! In a society that pushes women to overwork, “Be’s” is a commentary on individuation and the struggles we face to attain it in today’s culture.

TINY AUDIENCES, BIG DANCE
Join us again for the fourth installment of the renamed series, Up-Close where small groups of audiences sit in-the-round to witness dance up-close.

This black box series allows Mutual Dance Theatre to experiment with more than what is possible on a traditional stage: from involving audiences to immersive stage effects.

Prior world premieres in this series have been regarded by audiences as some of the best work they’ve seen by the resident company.

Join us in our Hartwell space to experience dance differently!

LEARN MODERN DANCE
All are invited to also attend a masterclass on the first Saturday of the show run.
