A spokesperson describes the event as follows:
“...Rein, Smith, and Megan Kurashige of Sharp & Fine, curate the CONCEPT series by artist, not by specific artistic work. Participating dancemakers are encouraged to share whatever they’re working on at the moment at any point in its creation, giving audiences insight into the artistic process and offering up exciting raw material, frequently fresh from the studio. Joining RAWdance, the CONCEPT series: 32 lineup includes fresh voices such as Colin Frederick, who has performed with Post:Ballet, Mia J. Chong’s EIGHT/MOVES, Deborah Slater Dance Theater, and more; and Tracey Lindsay Chan, who shifted from her career in global research at Youtube and Google to pursue her lifelong love of dance.
For nearly two decades, the CONCEPT series has broken down the barriers of traditional dance presentations, offering an intimate and accessible experience in a unique, opulent space. The series offers diverse artistry, with a dynamic range of styles and perspectives, and a behind-the-scenes vibe, where you can get a glimpse of dance works at different points in the creative process..."
