SUMMARY:Shapes of Change: Jody Sperling/Time Lapse Dance 25th Anniversary Season Night 2
DESCRIPTION:Pay-What-You-Can Pricing for All Show Tickets! \nFor two-and-a-half decades\, choreographer Jody Sperling and her Time Lapse Dance ensemble have been creating stunning spectacles that illuminate the relationship between the human body and the natural world while reckoning with climate change realities. Since 2022\, Sperling and company have been Eco-Artists-in-Residence at the New York Society for Ethical Culture\, co-presenting programs that embody an ethical and ecological ethos. Shapes of Change celebrates the 25th Anniversary of Time Lapse Dance and the 150th Anniversary of the New York Society for Ethical Culture with two unique performances (come to both!) featuring a world premiere and repertory favorites at the Society’s historic Adler Hall. \nThe world premiere\, Sea Change\,is a poetic reimagining of humanity’s relationship with water in the wake of rising sea levels. Performed by the company’s six exquisite dancers\, the dance delves into somatic experiences of submersion and conjures a misty realm between sea and sky. The work continues a decade-long collaboration between Sperling and Emmy Award-winning environmental composer Matthew Burtner. For the season\, Burtner performs live and conducts a quartet of New Consort vocalists to evoke a hauntingly luminous sea of sound. \nProgram A (Friday) features two other Sperling-Burtner collaborations: Fractal Memories\, originally created for the documentary Obsessed with Light\, which traces the entanglement of bodies through time; and Plastic Harvest\, a romp about plastic proliferations. Performance followed by a reception honoring theatrical legend\, and Time Lapse Dance founding Board member\, Gail Merrifield Papp. \nProgram B (Saturday) features the Sperling-Burtner collaborations:Wind Rose\, visualizing patterns of atmospheric disturbance; and excerpts from the visually-hypnotic Arbor\, dwelling on the intimacy of trees. Saturday’s performance is followed by an artist talkback. \nAll of these works feature transformative costumes that abstract human movement into elemental and organic forces\, with the dancers appearing to conjure the oceans eddies\, a growing forest\, or hovering storm clouds. The company’s unique style of movement draws inspiration from and furthers the art form created by dance icon Loie Fuller (1862-1928) a century ago. \nIn keeping with an ethical ethos\, all performance tickets are offered at pay-what-you-can pricing. \nProgram A – Friday\, April 24\nFractal Memories\nPlastic Harvest\nSea Change\nFollowed by a Separately Ticketed Reception \nProgram B – Saturday\, April 25\nWind Rose\nArbor (excerpts)\nSea Change\nIncluding Artist Talkback \n>>>Purchase Tickets Here\nDancers: Frances Barker\, Elinor Kleber Diggs\, Tessa Fungo\, Anika Hunter\, Maki Kitahara\, Lo Poppy\, Sarah Tracy\, and Rathi Varma \nJody Sperling/Time Lapse Dance programs are made possible in part by an ongoing eco-artist-residency at The New York Society for Ethical Culture\, with public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council\, with support from the Heinrich Böll Foundation Washington\, DC\, and the Harkness Foundation for Dance.
