WINTER FOLLIES SHOWCASE

New Work Welcome in all performance and dance forms! Cecilia Schmidt

YOU MIGHT SHOW A SPANKING new work-in-progress, or something old and beloved from your

vast performance repertory. Maybe even something improvisational? We love work that is wildly

experimental as well as work that comes out of a well-honed tradition. Could be a solo or group

work. Whatever you choose to present, however, think minimal (read "zero") additional set-up and/

or strike time. Your 5 minutes includes walking on, performing, and then clearing off. Everything

else is fair game...

At the end of each show, the audience votes for the artist or group that they would like to see a

whole evening production of next year. The "People's Choice" grand prize winner at the end of

the weekend will receive 50 hours of free rehearsal space and a full weekend production at the

"new" Gowanus. (Additionally, many Winter Follies artists are also invited to perform at other

paid Spoke gigs in the Spring, including the annual Local Produce Festival in May.)

 

ELIGIBILITY: Participants must be at least 21 years old and be"professional" performers.
