Miniatures In Detail

Miniatures In Detail Nick Burnham, Barbara Kilpatrick

David Parker and Jeffrey Kazin's Soaking WET series presents Vicky Shick

"Miniatures in Detail" is a concise new venture with long term collaborators, Elise Kermani (sound), Barbara Kilpatrick (visual) and Vicky Shick (movement). The charismatic, quirky and intimate chamber setting of the West End Theater functions as active host to the weaving together of costume, sound, choreography and the delicately nuanced relationships revealed in the piece. Costumes are designed to produce sound when in motion and the multi-layered sound composition is mixed and performed live. This piece follows their 2013 Bessie-nominated work for ten dancers, "Everything You See," translating an exploration of deliberate commotion and chaos directly onto the moving body. While still devoted to finessing detail, "Miniatures in Detail" offers a new passion for choreographed disjointedness and a taste for "letting go." The performers are Olsi Gjeci, Marilyn Maywald, Omagbitse Omagbemi and Vicky Shick.
