SUMMARY:dance workshop: letting things catch fire
DESCRIPTION:letting things catch fire – a little house workshop\nDuring this workshop\, we will court transformation through sensation\, attention\, and imagination. Working with guided visualizations and extended sensorial meditations\, we will tune to the subtle\, looking for the edges of impulse\, image\, and intention. What ignites our movement? What burns away? What remains? \nParticipants will engage in various improvisation exercises and tasked based work aimed at engaging their compositional mind. Using different modalities and exercises from choreographer Heather Stewart’s creative process we will build a movement score together over the course of two days. \nBy allowing curiosity and risk to lead\, we’ll explore interference as a strategy for change\, letting accidents\, friction\, and desire shape our choices. The aim is to let things catch fire\, to interrupt impulses\, to stay with things until they shift. \nWorkshop is November 1 & 2\nNovember 1 from 1-6:30pm\nNovember 2 from 10am-4pm \n(one day options are possible\, please inquire) \nSliding scale $125-185  CLICK HERE \nParticipants of the workshop are invited\, but not required\, to perform the score at MAGMA on November 14 & 15 for the MAGMA Showcase.  \n\nFounded by Heather Stewart (she/they) in 2020\, little house is a professional dance company established on principles of democratic process\, collaboration\, sustainability\, and high caliber dance performance in service of a strong arts ecosystem in Maine. After several years of working as an independent artist Heather established little house in order to formalize her collaborative relationships with other dancers\, musicians\, visual artists\, and writers. As an organization\, little house exists to challenge the notion that quality dance can only arise in cities that have already been categorized as designated dance hubs. \nExploring human disorder and melancholy\, little house dance draws viewers into dark and intimate worlds of movement ritual and duration. Movement vocabulary is created and performed with a clear\, rigorous approach to choreography and performance presence. little house dance creates work for audiences who are invested in seeing performance that stretches the boundaries of movement potential while touching on experiences that are uniquely human.
