Co-sponsored
by the Schlesinger Center, JFD presents Dancing
the Page, combining dance with the poetry of Reuben
Jackson and David Bristol. Dancing the Page
features performances by H-B Woodlawn High School’s
Women's Camerata and JFD’s Young Dancers Project.
The young dancers combine with the professional company
in Stepping Out, a work inspired by David Bristol's
poetry which carves out the interplay of the parent-child
bond.
The second part of the program is a wonderfully evocative
piece called Ridge Line, which examines the
cost of the Civil War, to the soldiers, their loved
ones, and to the land itself. Weaving together dance,
video, and text from the era, Ridge Line is
a powerful look at our country’s history that
seems especially meaningful in the context of the current
Iraq War. Music is by Judith Shatin.
Both sections of the program feature original music. Press
release here.
