In Plain Site
Trisha Brown Dance Company
Part of Hancher's 53rd season
In Plain Site resituates the artist’s dances in unexpected locations. For this site-specific program, selections from the repertory are restaged in a dynamic relationship to their setting, expanding and amplifying Brown’s affinity for naturalizing movement to the physical environment. In dialogue with Hancher, the company will develop two distinct programs that engage audiences with the range of Brown’s artistry reframed against an array of natural and built landscapes.
A special performance of Floor of the Forest, activated by Grant Wood Interdisciplinary Arts Fellow Kyle Marshall, will follow this performance of In Plain Site.
"Brown was a grande dame of the dance, a leader of postmodernism, and an enduring renegade. She developed a new approach to movement and choreography that changed the way we look at dance." – Dance Magazine
