Shannon Hummel/Cora Dance shares a full-length preview of the professional company’s latest work-in-progress, Because.
Gymnasiums are emotional spaces of triumph, defeat, intensity, and mundanity. They are both distinctly different, recognizably the same, and always timeless. Created specifically for gymnasiums, Shannon Hummel/Cora Dance’s latest work-in-development, Because, is an expansive, intimate, and existential exhibition of athleticism and humanity. Because, like gyms, we are always the same and different at every age; Because memory is just as much an act of imagination and fantasy as a recollection of fact; Because all that is certain is the end… there will be a party in a gym. And we believe it’ll be beautiful.
