FEEDBACK
Presented by
Tif Bullard, Michael Alaníz Macías and Marissa McKown
FEEDBACK is a mash-up of found complaints, fails, hails, and hype that's sampled, amplified, cross-cut, and overlaid into a non-narrative performance montage. Collaborators Bullard, Macías, and McKown present a series of vignettes using a unique vocabulary of gesture, sound, and found text to investigate the noise of opinion.
Do you really want to know what other people think?

Calisthenics for Shrapnel:SMASH
Curated by Artistic Associate Marty McConnell
Headlined by Patrick Rosa with Kristiana Colon
CALISTHENICS FOR SHRAPNEL is a two-weekend festival offering audiences and performers the opportunity to "work it out" over two of the most volatile and enmeshed issues in our lives and our world. Through poetry/spoken word, humor, movement and sound, CRUSH lets us confront topics relating to gender and sexuality, while SMASH brings to stage the realms of race and class and their many intersections and points of impact.

Coppelius
Presented by Corpo Dance Company
Under the Artistic Direction of Christopher M. McCray
In an age of steam automated machines and mechanical devices, Dr. Coppelius, a near-genius inventor, toils away in his workshop, determined to form his most beautiful creation yet! Coppelius is a movement play showing a glimpse of a day in the life of Dr. Arthur Coppelius. A prequel to the classic story of Coppelia, it uncovers what happened before the beloved lifelike doll came to life. |

20th Annual Winter Solstice Concerts
Performed by Hamid Drake and Michael Zerang
This hour-long ritual performance utilizes a wide array of percussion instruments from North Africa, the Middle East, and East India, as well as Western orchestral instruments. Drake and Zerang also use the Frame Drum that has its origin in ancient Mesopotamia, and a variety of hand drums, including dumbek, table, rukk, conga, djimbe, and tambourine, concentrating on long rhythmic cycles and structured improvisations. Drake and Zerang are veterans of the Chicago world music, new music, and jazz scenes, and have performed together nationally and internationally
The concerts began as a single concert in 1990 and expanded to three concerts due to increasing demand in the intimate confines of Link's Hall studio.
