STUDIO SERIES: Ashley Byler
Champions of Dance: Make Millions!
May 22 & 23 at 7:30pm
Using dance as entertainment, commodity, and physical rigor, Champions of Dance: Make Millions! explores the human struggle for glory and sincerity. Through exploitation of the dancers’ projected identities along with acts of confrontation, power, and coercion, Ashley Byler continues to make work that appeals to the brothel frequenter and the kindergartner alike.
The Studio Series offers six artists a 100 hour creative residency and the opportunity to research and develop work in a process-oriented space. Outcomes of this residency program are shared through public performances throughout the season, allowing you to see the artists' work at different stages of development in a more intimate space.
