Take Root presents Amy Cova Dance and TeatoLocal, Choreography by Joel Sherry!
on September 12th & 13th

Amy Cova Dance: Amy Cova's work “such trees as these” explores sustainability of body, of environment, and of creative process. Through a movement vocabulary that constantly punctuates the highly physical with a quiet gestural sense, the dancers shape a world of turmoil, confusion, hope, and happiness into a single theatrical experience. The darkly humorous and charming performers share the space with an original sound score composed by Alvin Hill.

TeatoLocal presents “venez m’ aider (come to help me)” choreographed by Joel Sherry and performed by Cynthia Bueschel Svigals and Joel Sherry. “venez m’ aider (come to help me)” presents a battle-torn landscape where two people discover each other and join together to await a rescue that never arrives. While they wait for the unknown, the signals they each send out are received by the other and translated into a message of support, assistance and compassion. In “venez m’ aider” TeatoLocal uses character-driven dance and performance to examine the human need to help.
