Baltimore Dance Project
Thursday – Saturday, February 5, 6 & 7 | 8:00 p.m.
Proscenium Theatre, UMBC Performing Arts and Humanities Building

Baltimore Dance Project returns to UMBC for its 31st year, featuring choreography by Carol Hess and Doug Hamby, and performances by Sandra Lacy and the company.

Carol Hess presents a new evocative work for five women, and Lightfield, a multimedia event that fuses choreography with a mix of both live and recorded video manipulated by dancers interacting with an onstage Kinect camera.

Doug Hamby presents Push, Punch, Run and Fall, in which the dancers’ actions bend Ferdinand Maisel’s sound score using wearable sensors, and a new work that explores the electric spaces between the bodies of four men.

Time and destiny are contemplated in a humorous and quirky new duet by Adrienne Clancy and Sandra Lacy. Lacy will also perform the silky and mysterious solo Slip, a collaboration with former Trisha Brown dancer Mariah Maloney performed to an original score by Timothy Nohe.

Guest artists Jessie Laurita-Spanglet and Matthew Cumbie investigate the role and power of ritual in Ritual Cycle #1. How do we deal with change now, and how have those before explored the same question?

$20 general admission, $10 students and seniors, $7 UMBC students. Advance tickets by credit card are available through MissionTix. Patrons who prefer to pay cash or check at will call may make a reservation by calling 410-455-6240.
