 "... ritualized patterns and sudden interruptions, calm and then playful interactions — life is driven by momentum but constantly disrupted… emphasis is on performers over forty, bringing life experience to the piece. All are immensely graceful.  Choreography ranges from poetic, to unsettling, to blithe. The piece is intriguing to watch."    --  THEATER PIZAZZ NYC

​​UNEXPECTED EXPOSURE SERIES 
stay tuned for upcoming dates
Picture
Taking performances to the sidewalks, fountains, museums,    non-dance events ... surprising site-specific venues ... knocking down doors of exclusion ... proffering an opportunity to experience a new space, a new venue, an art exhibition, in a totally new, 3-dimensional, visceral, & human way! 
Performed free of charge for audiences this new series is comprised of short portable, dancetheater works, performed by a cast of "younger" professional performers  (younger than the performers corningworks engages in THE GLUE FACTORY PROJECTS!) 
​

Opening up the experience of CW's dancetheater works to those who would not ordinarily attend an “in-theater” production.  Expanding the path to mutual accessibility, while actively countering these growing times of isolation and division.
