Outreach Activities

Advance Prep for live performance: Community-level workshops for adults and aspiring young dancers before the performance. Connect with local studios through our Instagram page – sharing ‘behind the scenes’ images and promo footage. Post-show talk back. 

We are eager to engage with young aspiring dance artists in rural communities, offering insight to the bridge between community/studio dance and professional dance communities. We are all from various rural and metropolitan upbringings, and have multiple perspectives of how to engage and take part in furthering practices of dance. Classes for the community: Offering workshops in Somatic/Improvisation, Contemporary Floorwork Classes, Ballet Technique, Martial Arts and Drag, as well as repertoire and choreography. These classes may be provided to adults or aspiring young dance and performing artists. We are able to offer drop-in rates, or a sliding fee for multiple workshops. Open Dress Rehearsals to school age students: Providing insight to a working environment of professional dance and theatre contexts as well as creating environments where dance can be more financially accessible to all persons.

Community Engagement

We would like to connect with local schools - welcoming classes and giving the ability to sit-in to our stage rehearsals as well as potential for Q+A sessions with students and teachers. As a company we would like to work with art teachers, understanding how our influence could engage with their curriculum and goals for the classes. We would also like to offer the opportunity for 1-3 aspiring dancers to join us in the theatre for our tech rehearsals to learn about staging, lighting and witness the behind the scenes work that goes into the production of a show. We strongly believe that outreach and community engagement is a fundamental aspect of touring and sharing art with communities, as well as something that requires dedicated effort. The opportunity to share in an open dialogue between artist and community members is an essential exchange for the development of this artform - understanding how we as traveling artists can share our experiences, and how we can be receptive to the abundant knowledge and information that each community has.
