Interglacial by Laura Peterson Choreography
Interglacial by Laura Peterson Choreography
February 11 and 12 at 7:30 p.m.
Mainstage Theatre
Tickets: $15 General admission
Free to HCC students, faculty and staff.
Interglacial is a new multidisciplinary dance work through which choreographer Laura Peterson explores the urgent topic of climate change, inspired by minimalist geometric art and Land Art of the 1960s and ’70s. A dance and visual art installation project, Interglacial is about deep time and the dynamics of nature that is designed to create a space for reflection on human impacts on the Arctic region of the earth and to encourage climate activism. In the piece, four dancers manipulate a set made entirely of paper transforming an icy landscape into enormous sculptures and become a tsunami that overtakes the stage. Laura Peterson is a NYC-based dance artist creating works that challenge the limits of physicality and reframe performance spaces.
Join us in this fast-paced adventure through the Black History Hall of Fame, led by Dr. Daisy and Professor Paisley. In just 45-minutes, the audience will be introduced to over a dozen groundbreakers and hall-of-famers that have largely contributed to shaping our nation’s past, present and future. You’ll see everyone from Maya Angelou and Aretha Franklin to the Buffalo Soldiers and Mae Jemison and that’s just to name a few!"
