Related to the last: Darrell Jones is one of three choreographers involved in the next Seldoms production, 3 x 3, and is hosting a workshop as part of the Jane Adams-Hull House Museum‘s Art and Democracy Series.
Darrell Jones’s movement workshop will physically tap into the energy of riot from a multitude of vantage points. Jones will guide participants through some of the processes used in his work Whiff of Anarchy, created in collaboration with the Chicago dance company The Seldoms. Exercises such as reading the crowd, weight-sharing/bearing, physical thresholds and collisions/consensus through movement will be used as a way to trigger collective and individual chaos and investigate the spark of riot as an energetic improvisation of movement. The workshop is free and open to the public—dancers and non-dancers alike.
It’s at the Museum building itself on February 11 from 12:00-1:30pm. Darrell is a ray of sunshine in human form. It will cost you nothing. Go.
