What is your daily walk as a trans, nonbinary, gnc and/or intersex person in this world? What is your strut? What shadows do you hold? What lineage do you carry? In celebration of LGBTQIA+ PRIDE, Invertigo Dance Theatre invites you to participate in its newest dance theatre project: Walk the Walk. Our next workshops invite participants to collaborate in a brave, exploratory space where stories, movement, and pedestrian choreographies weave a collective tale of our daily walk as trans, nonbinary, intersex, and gender nonconforming people. And yes, on top of it all, we'll get down to some tunes spun by DJLicious! What is Pride without some queer dancing?! Apply to participate by Friday June 18th. Applications processed on a rolling basis. BIPOC, people with disabilities, youth, and elders are encouraged to apply. No previous experience with dance or art is required - just an open mind/spirit ready for some playful yet deep collaboration and creative exploration. Free to all participants. Walk the Walk is led by Invertigo Creative Engagement Director K. Bradford (they/them) in collaboration with guest artist D. Hill (he/him) and Invertigo dancer-in-residence Cody Potter (they/them).
