Winifred Haun & Dancers To Premiere New Work In November

Winifred Haun & Dancers will premiere an important new dance work, "I am (not) this body" on November 3 at the Studebaker Theater in downtown Chicago. The new work is a collaboration between Artistic Director, Winifred Haun and Assistant Artistic Director, Solomon Bowser. "I am (not) this body" will explore how we view "different" bodies-the bodies of women, children and people of color, and how those bodies and the humans inside them seem to be expendable or invisible.

This engagement will also include two other works, "Bento," (2011) that takes its inspiration and choreography from the works of other choreographers (with their permission), and "Don't Linger Too Long" (2013), which explores the important but isolating effects of being with family members. More program information, including details about other events related to this engagement, will be released in mid-September.

"I am (not) this body" will premiere on Saturday, November 3 at 7:30pm at the Studebaker Theater, 410 S. Michigan, in the Fine Arts Building, Chicago. The Studebaker Theater is wheelchair accessible.

Tickets are $35/general admission and $22/children, ages 6 to 18. Kids 5 and under are free. Group tickets are available for $99 for 4 tickets. For other group rates, please call 773-454-9843 or email wini@winifredhaun.org Tickets can be purchased online here: https://artsentertainment.thundertix.com/events/133587.
