Another Easter element falls into place
March 16, 2007
I’m pleased to confirm that Malinda Allen will working with us on the Easter @ Avalon project. She’s creating a piece in collaboration with artist Noah Fischer (who is creating dynamic light sculpture for the event) that will explore themes of incarnation, bodies, gender, and, of course, Easter. She grew up in the black church and her work reflects this – her piece will involve quite a bit of call-and-response, audience participation, etc.
Rumor has is that she and Deborah Black, another choreographer with whom I’ve worked, will also be leading some sort of yoga/contact improv/partner massage during the latter half of the service. Excellent.
