Punk glam fashion designer Saira Huff of Total Crap Uninc commissioned a dance by Jamey Garner to accompany her fashion show at the Williamsburg Fashion Weekend.
Brinsley Davis choreographed three dances for the opening of the 2009 school year. 20 faculty and staff dancers, including the University President, performed for an audience of hundreds of co-workers, receiving a standing ovation.
Three Dances teamed up again with Talking Image Connection (TIC), an organization that brings together visual arts and the written word, to present new dances made in collaboration with poet Haley Lasché. The dances were performed in a soap vat installation, part of the gallery show “Nothing at the End of the Lane.”
Suzanne Wiltgen of Three Dances produced her MFA thesis show at the Fringe Festival. With a massive cast, live music, and dances spanning her career, Suzanne’s show highlighted the fun and quirky attitude she brings to dance.
The Southern Theater, Minneapolis, MN
August 2-9, 2008
Performers: Diane Aldis, Michala Cornell, Nicole Curry, Lightsey Darst, Brinsley Davis, Kelly Dormady, Denise Gagner, Prem Govindaswamy, Laura Grant, Mary Harding, John Mark Hostetler, Kerry Keen, Haley Lasché, Jamey Leonard, Betsy Maloney, Arturo Miles, Jason Miller, and Sarah Russ, and Suzanne Wiltgen.
Three Dances were joined by their friends in an evening of undressing: with Master of Ceremonies John Munger (from tails to boxers), poet Lightsey Darst (in Saira Huff fashion), Professor George W. Bruce (sporting ass grass), Mad King Thomas (stripping on command), and poet/dancer/model Haley Lasché (showing some cheek). Three Dances started in wedgie-licious leotards, moved into sweatpants and ended up in body bronzer and not much else. Even the audience got in to the act!
As the youngest member, Brinsley Davis showed her dance “Form,” choreographed to poems by Jean Larson, in this Rabbit Show for “Choreographers Under 30.”
