Source to Sound: The Housatonic River Project

Description

Choreographer Susan Sgorbatl, visual artist Sue Rees and writer Julius Rosenwald present a site-specific performance including eight dancers, costumes by Daniel Michaelson and music by Jonathan Bepler. Rare Species is an improvisational research process in four sections. The first section is an abstract look at the "rare species" on the river; the second section is an exploration of mythic water stories; the third is seeing movement on the river through the study of fractals and chaos; and the fourth is an interactive journey down the path of the river. Dancers: Maiya Greaves, Jon Kinzel, Penny Campbell, Terry Creach, Susan Sgorbati, and Peter Schmitz 1992-93
