Fast Forward provides opportunities for choreographers working in all dance forms to workshop 25 – 35 min pieces on a shared bill curated around a theme.
In October, Fast Forward’s theme is “A Point of View.” Ballet Des Amériques will present Lentil Soup and Megan Bascom & Dancers will present ON.
Lentil Soup (Ballet des Amériques)
Choreography by Carole Alexis
New work by Ballet des Amériques
ON (Megan Bascom & Dancers)
Choreography by Megan Bascom in collaboration with the dancers
ON sets the stage in the present, a time when we find ourselves engaged and constantly stimulated. Information overload is an undeniable reality and our device-heavy habits have drastically shifted our social dynamics. Boredom, down-time, and mind wandering have become lost experiences. Self is a word that now holds a double meaning; self and digital self. ON delivers an intimate look at the behaviors, spaces, and platforms with which we occupy ourselves and engage with others in our digitalized life.
