7MPR Themed Dance Theater 2020: The Second Midnight Virtual Performance (Deadline: July 20)

 
7Midnights Physical Research-The Fifth Midnight Performance/ Choreographer: Reliant Tom

7Midnights Physical Research: Themed Dance Theater 

7Midnights Physical Research is dedicated to the exploration of 7 social issues: Class, Education, Ability, Sexuality, Race, Age, Gender. The Second Midnight Performance Series will take place on August 1st, 2020.  Each Midnight performance will cover two or more than three topics of these social issues through dance.  Works will express one or more themes of the seven social issues aligning with their thinking of dance and society. 

 

7MPR Virtual Performance 2020

7MPR Themed Dance Theater-The Second Midnight Performance will be on August 1 as a virtual performance. Based on this situation, we are also deciding to cancel any application fee during the pandemic, so we hope artists can join our live performance on zoom with their indoor or outdoor works, in this way, the performance will be more like a "Multi-space performance.”  Wherever artists want to showcase their works: kitchen,  garden, garage, car, bed, table, floor, rooftop, bathroom or tub…., YES, there are many options and fun ideas come up with our strong artistry and wisdom during the hard time of COVID-19. 

Note: If you also want to share any video works you have done, like dance film, dance, song, poem, music work or physical theater, please make sure they were made this year or recently. Video works made last year or before 2019 will be not the perfect option for the theme of 2020 as we are all experiencing different issues caused by COVID-19 now.
