TRISKELION ARTS PROGRAM
Agawam
Artistic Director/Choreographer: Teresa Fellion in collaboration with the performers
Performers: Maria Gardner, Kimberly Murry, Svea Schneider, Jessica Stroh, and Ashley Zimmerman
Original Music composed and performed by John Yannelli and Trilogy: featuring Dominick Boyle and Emily Cardwell
Costume Design: Nina Katan
Lighting Design: David Glista
Projection Design: Charly Wenzel
Connectivity, fast footwork, and complex partnering examine sensibilities behind work ethic and familial bonds of post- depression-era, working-class families in Agawam. Translation of some ethos, social practices, memories, and energetic currents into movement ask, “How do ‘borrowed’ threads of cultural crossover move us?”
Thresholden
Artistic Director/Choreographer: Mari Meade
Dancers: Allison Beler, Dia Dearstyne, Breanna Gribble, Misuzu Hara, Sean Hatch, Morgan Hurst, Isaac Owens, Or Reitman, Rachel Rizzuto
Art Director: Marc Witmer
Set: Morgan Hurst
Lighting Design: David Glista
Thresholden is an exploration of coexisting worlds: mysterious and inviting, uncanny and eerie. Its cast of characters—fantastical, hunched, textured, anthropomorphic—and their overlapping confrontations in an intricate web of existence are steadily revealed. Meade originally created this haunting work while in residence at Lake Studios Berlin.
This program is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council.
