PEEP SHOW: The Instant Choreography Project

Collaboratively produced by Striding Lion Performance Group + Links Hall + Constellation

 

Peep Show brings audiences into direct contact with the unique dance making processes of Chicago's most beloved and innovative choreographers as they develop world premiere dance works live, in the moment, based on suggestions from audience members. Each evening's performance will feature two choreographers working simultaneously against the clock, in Links Hall and Constellation's side-by-side studios, to realize completely new pieces that incorporate suggestions from the audience, original music from a composer, and the choreographer's signature approach to composition. The festival features music by composers whose rich experimental practices create works that will speak powerfully to choreographers and audiences.

Audience members will be invited to wander casually from one studio to the other, sipping a beverage from Constellation's on-site bar, and seeing the creative process of dance making exposed in its naked form.
