Urban Culture Project presents Jutting and Swerving, an evening of new dance works by Jane Gotch and Tiffany Sisemore at La Esquina, 1000 West 25th Street, KCMO, 64108, Friday and Saturday, May 1st and 2nd at 8pm.  Doors open at 7:30 pm. Admission is $10 at the door; $8 for students and seniors.

The evening features Still Within, a new work choreographed by Jane Gotch set to music by The Clogs, Zoe Keating, Four Tet, and The Notwist. Four dancers weave in and out of group, solo, and duet arrangements, with movements that range from stop motion to dynamic and driving, as physical and spatial relationships and the interplay between external and self are explored. Tiffany Sisemore creates a euphoric environment within her newest piece, Now We Are A Coda, through the melding of dance movement, color movement, and sound movement.  The dance is an open narrative created in response to the eclectic music of Animal Collective and the vibrant video work of Daniel Colman. Using vignettes of movement bound by a quirky sensibility, Now We Are A Coda encompasses oscillating moments of calculated pandemonium and lulling stillness to produce a stage of nonsensical reality.

This performance is supported by Charlotte Street Foundation, ArtsKC Fund, and Kansas City Young Audiences.  Read the full press release. Read article in Present Magazine.
