Bellingham Repertory Dance - "around"
Nov

Bellingham Repertory Dance - "around"

BRD presents Around, an evening of contemporary dance. Around is a show about the movement of relationships. Dancers explore arcs, orbits, through-lines, familiarity, distance, and seasonal cycles. Featuring works by choreographers from across the country, BRD is thrilled to share this dynamic show with Bellingham audiences.

In Sydney Samson’s “breathing deep on a freezing beach,” movement defines the cyclical patterns of relationships. Morgan Sandlin’s “tastes like grapes, feels like velvet” is a playful personification of purple. A perennial favorite, Deb Wolf’s strikingly athletic “Arc Angle” will return to the BRD stage. Also returning is David Harvey’s meditative work, “Laps,” which invites its audience to witness the power of habitual personal ritual. “Amá,” by Danah Bella, explores “the joys, the disruptions, the significance of touch, and the negotiation between these elements.” Around will also include the premiere of an exciting new work by BRD’s own Soleil Chappelle in collaboration with local artist Tricia Stackle.

Cost: General $25, Pay-It-Forward $35, Discount $15 (Thanks to Pay-It-Forward Patrons)

Kuntz & Company - Waiting

Kuntz and Company artists Alona Christman, Vanessa Daines, Pam Kuntz and Kate Stevenson along with community members Hazel, Emily, Naquoia, Shalini, Kathy, Ann, Kim, Angela, Evelyn, and Skyla bring Waiting to the Firehouse Arts and Events Center.

I tell my students they need to dance like they are wearing a red dress: someone who walks through the world in a red dress is seen. There is something to that kind of presence and confidence that is powerful. Falling in a mud muddle in sweats while crossing the street is one thing, but falling in a mud puddle while crossing the street in a red dress is something else entirely. And then getting up, wringing out your clothes, and walking along is REALLY something. That is what I tell the students in my class....they need to fall in a mud puddle while wearing their red dress. They need to be seen.

I don't own a red dress. I joke about owning one. I often tell my family that I am going to go buy one. I almost owned one - my wedding dress. Ultimately it didn't happen. In 2018 I wrote the only poem I have ever written, This Color, about that almost red wedding dress. (see more here)

Line Dance Party with Pam Kuntz

Join us for a line dance party with Pam Kuntz!

This class will start at the beginner level and move into a more intermediate/advanced level by the end of the 2 hours, depending on attendees.

We will move our way through some classic country line dances and some lesser known dances. We may sing and woop along the way, and we will definitely have a good time! All are welcome — no prior dance experience necessary.

Drinks will be available for purchase in the Firehouse cafe, and attendees can come and go as they please.

Cost: Pay what you can ($10-25 suggested)
