ON SITE
Moving Theater's residency and events at the EFA Gallery

In January 2007, the experimental performance group, Moving Theater, transforms the EFA gallery into a performative construction site. On Site, a series of events open to the public, exhibits the “blueprints” for the company’s 2007 season. Photographs, scenic and costume designs, sculptures, found objects, video footage, interactive games and live performance interact to create "total environments" in every corner of the gallery, capturing the spirit of Moving Theater projects under construction. These projects range from a large-scale, site-specific performance at one of the city’s landmark Armories to a radical dance/theater interpretation of Antigone.

Public Events on Friday, January 19, Thursday, January 25, and Friday, January 26, 2007, 6:30pm. The gallery opens to the public at 6 pm each evening.

Each On Site event at the EFA gallery is one-hour long. Space is limited ; reservations strongly suggested.

Moving Theater works at the frontier of dance and theater. Under the direction of Brennan Gerard and Ryan Kelly, Moving Theater is an international ensemble of artists who collaborate on the creation and production of experimental performance projects. Since its inception in 2002, Moving Theater has performed original works on stages in New York City (Henry Street Settlement/Harry DeJur Playhouse, Dance New Amsterdam, Works & Process Series at the Guggenheim Museum, Joyce SoHo, Mazer Theater), Paris, Montreal, Boston, East Hampton, and at Jacob’s Pillow, as well as in non-traditional spaces ranging from an abandoned glue factory in Hudson, NY, to a coffee emporium in SoHo. The company has completed residencies at the Watermill Center, the Old American Can Factory and the Morriss Center Dance Institute.
