Before the Jump

(2020)

A dance-theater concert performed at Chez Bushwick

BEFORE THE JUMP is a dance theater concert that clones the lunar phase as a calendar for somatic exchange. Each phase alternates in shifting cycles between four bodies, objects, and sound.

A new moon begins, a protagonist disputes the fates’ landscape to forge a dialogue between themselves and the moon, the fates support and lead the distant pair through their passage and memory of exchange.
