Sean Dorsey Dance: the Lost Art of Dreaming

Past event
Nov 16, 2024, 7:30 to 9 PM

Sean Dorsey is an Emmy Award-winning choreographer, dancer, writer, educator, and activist. Long recognized as the U.S.' first acclaimed transgender modern dance choreographer, Dorsey brings his newest work—and his explicitly trans-positive pedagogy—for his Middlebury Performing Arts Series debut. The Lost Art of Dreaming is a full-evening fusion of full-throttle dance, intimate storytelling, intricate costuming, and exquisite queer partnering, all performed with Sean Dorsey Dance's signature technical precision, guts, and deep humanity. Performed by a powerhouse ensemble of five trans, queer, and gender-non-conforming dancers with a rich, layered soundscore featuring original and commissioned music.

This event is expected to sell out in advance, so don't wait to get your tickets. $25/20/10/5, discounts available. http://go.middlebury.edu/tickets

Plus: Dance Workshops! Dorsey and his company will offer two trans-friendly movement workshops suitable for "terrified beginners" through advanced dancers. Open to all, and designed to be supportive of transgender, trans, non-binary, and gender-nonconforming bodies and creative expression. Wed. 11/13 at 4:30 and Sat 11/16 at noon. Free.
