The Performance Collective, located at cfpa, is excited to welcome Keith Hennessy to the Twin Cities for a movement workshop, January 31st-Feb 1st, 2020.

Dancing Magic Together, a.k.a. responding to the material and psychological terrorism of neoliberal capital during a political era of intensified polarization with rigorously playful approaches to shared dancing, ritual, healing, and performance. 

Intuition. Synchronicity. Logic. Queer logic. Decolonial practices that increase our listening and reject stress. Play and science.  Participants will explore the poetics, politics, and potentials of creating a shared world by dancing together. How can bodies and imaginations be decolonized and healed? How can dancing respond to anxiety and trauma? How do we develop tools for non verbal and improvised negotiations of consent and collaboration? More about the workshop here.

This workshop is part of The Performance Collective’s ReClaim series, which explores the vitality and evolution of American identity, and the ways in which creative works reflect our lived experience (or not). We engage fiercely with the complex and contradictory nature of the human experience, and we assemble for lively questions, dynamic conversation, and new understanding.

The Performance Collective is fiscally-sponsored through Springboard for the Arts‘ Incubator Program. All income from this workshop supports the work of local performing artists through residencies, public presentations, and workshops from nationally-recognized performance-based artists.
