The performance will be approximately 30 minutes and feature three dances:
“Wild Roots, Fugitive Blooms,” a new group work choreographed by Company Dancer Eona Carey, “What's Being Said,” a solo for Assistant Artistic Director Julia Schaeffer choreographed by Assistant Choreographer Vernon Gooden, and an excerpt from Ms. Haun's 2017 work, “Trashed,” which combines contemporary dance with elements of circus acrobatics. There will also be short improvisational dance sequences on the Cheney Mansion veranda and foyer.
