Lingo dancetheater

The Lift

THE PROJECT:

These dancers practice contact improvisation, a form of dynamic and responsive dance coupling that demands a strong bond of trust. What better place to put this form to the test than out on our city's streets, where personal space is under constant negotiation. Would you put your faith in Lingo?

ABOUT THE ARTIST:

Lingo is an inspired group of contemporary artists, athletes, actors, bravehearts, lunatics... and yes, dancers. They are drawn to the circumstances that provide common ground, inspire surprising connections and shift the entry point of how the public interfaces with dance. They seek platforms for work outside the limitations of proscenium-based performance, such as art "events" including food, drink, gathering and dancing, museum installations and one on one encounters in urban, public settings.
