LIAISONS is a series of dances that are performed in intimate spaces - living rooms, senior centers, hospitals, galleries. Four dancers form liaisons with the audience and each other, stretching the boundary of closeness between strangers and inviting the audience to intimately gaze at the unfolding movement. The work asks questions of how intimacy is perceived in unexpected environments and how public performance is understood within private spaces.
DELIRIOUS DANCES merges theater with dance to create works that explore the beauty and complexity of life. Founded by Edisa Weeks in 2003, DELIRIOUS Dances seeks to bring dance to diverse audiences by performing in a variety of spaces including living rooms, storefront windows, swimming pools, hospitals, senior centers, galleries and proscenium stages.
