SUMMARY:CONTRA-TIEMPO
DESCRIPTION:Lucía\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShingleton Dance Space \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWork in Progress: Roots of Loving Us\n\n\n\nSome creative works come together quickly\, like a spark catching fire. Others take years to take root and grow — expanding across time and location. Join us as we culminate a creative residency with LA-based activist dance company CONTRA-TIEMPO and share excerpts from their newest work in progress. Roots of Loving Us is a multi-year community engagement\, collaborative research project and performance created by holly johnston of Responsive Body and Ana María Álvarez\, artistic director of CONTRA-TIEMPO. \n\n\n\nInspired by the idea of chosen families\, the new work uses somatic healing and ancestral technologies of dance\, music and imagery to present narratives of adoption\, foster care and bioadaptive families. Through community collaborations\, such as their work with Music Therapy students at Shenandoah Conservatory; cross-sensory experiences; and innovative production elements\, this work is a testament to lives transformed by the choice to love forever. \n\n\n\nThis event is presented by Performing Arts Live in partnership with the Shenandoah Conservatory music therapy program. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDigital Program\n\n\n\nShenandoah Conservatory uses digital programs for all performances. In addition to their engaging and accessible design\, digital programs are cost effective\, environmentally friendly and enable us to create and update our programs more efficiently\, which means we can focus our resources on the performances you love!
