In 2015 Berlin-born Turkish choreographer Nejla Y. Yatkin celebrates both her 5th year in Chicago and her 15th anniversary as a solo artist with a new solo world premiere titled What Dreams May Come.
What Dreams May Come is an evening length multi media dance theatre piece choreographed and danced by Nejla Yatkin. The solo explores the intersection and connections between the personal and the public, between how we perceive ourselves and how we are perceived.
The solo was made possible in part through support from the Turkish Cultural Foundation (www.TCF.org) in Washington, D.C., The Between the Seas Festival in New York, Old Town School of Folk Music residency in Chicago, 3Arts (www.3Arts.org and the Princess Grace Works in Process Award from the Princess Grace Foundation through a residency at the Baryshnikov Art Center in New York.
