WEDNESDAY 6/24

Fireside Chats with Peter: rerun featuring The Davis Sisters and Sofia Engelman and Em Papineau

11-12PM EST

Joined by guests, The Dance Complex’s Executive Artistic Director Peter DiMuro, will be chatting all things dance in Boston and beyond. This week Peter will be joined by The Davis Sisters and Sofia Engelman and Em Papineau. 

 

At the threshold of dance, theater, comedy, and installation, The Davis Sisters (Joy Davis and Alexander Davis), create experiences in which performers and audiences are invited to contemplate humanity, enjoy absurdity, and delight in physical and verbal articulation. Through rigorous imagination, improvisation and ridiculousness, they courageously and insightfully dare to create scenarios in which they perform magnified versions of themselves.

 

Em Papineau and Sofia Engelman live and dance together in Northampton, MA. Over the past 2.5 years, they have performed their collaborative works at Judson Church, Dance Complex, School for Contemporary Dance and Thought, Ponderosa, FRESH Festival, Smith College, EstroGenius Festival, Green Street Studios, and more.
