Movers & Shapers: A Dance Podcast produced by The Moving Architects
Spring 2021 – “From the Field” Podcast Series

Call for Submissions:  Due Sunday, May 23, 2021

One year ago, the spread of COVID-19 caused dance spaces, classes, theaters, performances, rehearsals, and seasons to come to an abrupt halt. We asked you, how are we going to get through this?

Now, a year later, we want to hear from you again! What has changed for you in the last year? Or, how has the last year changed you? How have you navigated practical concerns – paying the bills, unknown timelines, continuing to move – and spiritual concerns – connection within community, intimate bonds, creative process? What are your thoughts, fears, resources, and hopes for moving forward?

Let us hear your voice! Anyone in the dance field can record these points of view – dancers, choreographers, collaborators, educators, writers, directors, scholars, administrators. We will put your responses together for special upcoming Movers & Shapers episodes.
