Ep 43: Modern Dance Date Night

General Admission Podcast

What is modern dance? This week, Margi Cole, Artistic Director of Chicago's The Dance COLEective, joins us to help Tyler understand a few ways of approaching that question. Then, Tyler and Don venture to The Storefront Theatre in downtown Chicago to see a modern dance piece that Margi created with Choreographer Peter Carpenter, Rituals of Abundance for Lean Times #14: Curious Reinventions. A mouthful, yes, but you might be suprised at how Tyler responds. This is an episode about bodies, movement, artists, audience interaction, backstage hijinx and the way language affects our movement (and vice-versa).
