Past Performances

Corning Artwalk

Saturday October 8, 2005 at 4pm at Fat Cats


Solo Performace by Wide-Eyed Dance Theatre's very own Sarah Foster. Though much of the work was based off from pieces already existing in the WE Dance repertoire (Stale and an untitled work in progress), the solo versions involved spur-of-the-moment improvisations. In addition, she performed an improv titled Portrait, set to an Amelia Harnas painting, as well as an audience participation improvisation where the audience, combined with chance, inspired the" dance." Thanks to Amelia Harnas for organizing the event!
