Kate Weare Company
Opening Night    Thursday    July 19    8:00pm
Opening Night: Thursday, July 19, 8 pm: Bay Area native Kate Weare and her New York-based company, Kate Weare Company presents an evening of six dances engaged with the body’s form of truth telling: our need for safety, our longing to connect, our desire to be seen and our irrepressible intelligence about who we are as individuals. Relationships create a framework for investigating contemporary themes of power, sexuality and emotional authenticity.

Burn, a solo for a man with three women watching, explores a desire to be seen behind the borders of masculinity. Dig, Dirt & Foregone, three short dances for women, explore the urgent need for safety within a driving quest for power. Reign is an unusual glance into the female psyche with a tribe of three bouncing, slapping and sparring through tests of honor and hierarchy. Drop Down (2006) is a duet in which lovers negotiate proximity, physical strength and erotic intensity. All six dances chart the surprising rhythms of human relations and celebrate the visceral pleasure of the body in motion.

"an impressively distinct voice..."
