SUMMARY:State of Play Presents: Laila J. Franklin: BABYBABYBABY
DESCRIPTION:A dance about dances about love. \nInterested in the human impulse for connection\, BABYBABYBABY (2024) (West Coast Premiere) taps into feelings of budding romance\, when falling in love is silly and fast and sexy and devastating and you are brilliant and stupid and spellbound.

SUMMARY:State of Play Presents: Dragons Dance/Erin Yen & Johnny Huy Nguyễn
DESCRIPTION:Nervous (World Premiere) is a new dance work by Dragons Dance/Erin Yen exploring human interconnectivity and the nervous system’s role in dissociation from the modern world. Created in collaboration with a practicing neurologist and the dancers. \nHow do you burn? Reclaiming fire as a regenerative force for rebirth\, BURN (Work In Progress) envisions dance as a transformative act of self-immolation. How do we set ablaze inherited legacies of war\, forced displacement\, and violence passed down through family to create ash for new growth?

SUMMARY:State of Play Presents: Babatunji: F
DESCRIPTION:In their new duet\, Babatunji and Hadassah Perry work together to create F (Work In Progress)\, a query of what can come from the quest for freedom. \nThe subjectivity of freedom in America is inescapable. “Freedom” is now synonymous with homogeneity and bigotry\, a freedom to hate. F reimagines freedom through experiences of love\, frivolity\, imagination\, and tenderness. What happens when we give ourselves the freedom to be ourselves?

SUMMARY:State of Play Presents: Malinda LaVelle and Emmaly Wiederholt: What the Hell Happened in San Francisco?
DESCRIPTION:What the Hell Happened in San Francisco? (Bay Area Premiere)(2024) is an evening-length work of dance-theater wrestling with idealism\, dreams\, and disillusionment. Malinda LaVelle and Emmaly Wiederholt met in 2008 in San Francisco while trying to “make it” as contemporary dance artists. They burned that dream bright and fast\, living and dancing together for several years before moving on to other schemes. On a hot summer night\, they reminisced about the experience of living in the Bay Area as young dance artists. Malinda sighed and said\, “What the hell happened in San Francisco?”

SUMMARY:State of Play Presents: Khala Brannigan: Maura
DESCRIPTION:Maura (Work In Progress) is a deeply personal psychological thriller and horror work that draws from lived experience and ancestral Native American storytelling connected to choreographer Khala Brannigan’s lineage. Growing up with the knowledge that she has a deceased sister\, Brannigan carried an uncanny sense of her presence—questioning whether she heard her speaking or whether Brannigan herself was alive. Maura explores the spaces between identity and absence\, grief and embodiment\, memory and myth.

SUMMARY:State of Play Presents: Leslie Cuyjet: Blur
DESCRIPTION:Blur (West Coast Premiere)\, a solo performance by choreographer Leslie Cuyjet\, experiments with visibility and invisibility\, and the relationship between performer\, audience\, and object. Viewers are invited to navigate a choreographic and phonetic landscape through the lens of race and objectification. Written and performed by Cuyjet\, Brandon Wolcott’s sound design manipulates text informed by personal history and experiences with dance\, which so often casts her as a black dot on a white stage.

SUMMARY:State of Play Presents: seymour:dancecollective: vernacular
DESCRIPTION:vernacular is a new work by seymour:dancecollective that embodies theories of “linguistic relativity.” The theory addresses whether the languages and cultures in which we are fluent affect the way we think. The collective investigates this question through written\, verbal\, and physical experiments in search of a shared dialogue with each other\, our audience and our larger socio-political context(s).
