TROY SAVINGS BANK MUSIC HALL RESIDENCY

Performance of And we keep

February 19, 2025

7pm

And we keep is a song, a dance, and a ceremony devised specifically for the historic Troy Savings Bank Music Hall. Featuring six performers, And we keep calls audience participants into intimacy with the spirit of place and moment through a care-fully crafted tapestry of sound, words, movement, and visual elements. The roughly hour-long performance acts as a prayer for the resuscitation of our imaginations and a humble recognition of our interconnectivity.  

Sliding scale $8-30 (& no one turned away for lack of funds) 

Public workshops “some ways to keep”

February 2, 2-3:30pm and February 12, 7-8:30pm

In these public workshops we will do an accessible, physical warm up, learn and practice some modes for creating altars/arrangements with found objects on our own and together, explore simple songs and ways of improvising with sound as a group, and engage in movement-based practices that bring all of the elements of the workshop together. Through our collaborative work, we will awaken enchantment and become more intimate with ourselves, one another, and the energy of the Troy Savings Bank Music Hall. These workshops are open to anyone and will be adaptable to all bodies. No previous dance or performance experience is necessary. You can take one of the workshops or both; they will be related to one another and different from one another. Wear layers of clothing that you are comfortable moving in and bring a notebook if you like (paper and pens also provided).

Sliding scale $5-30 (& no one turned away for lack of funds)
