Thank you for including us in 5 things to do this weekend!

"DELVE into dance:

Mifflin St. See new works that cross, blend and blur genres on Friday at 7:30 p.m. and Saturday at 3 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Tickets cost $15-$30.“

Here is a sneak peak of Guy Thorne's new piece for DELVE! Notice he says, "I'm choreographing it on the fly."

With many complex factors at play in creating new work with unfamiliar dancers, flexibility and improvisation are vital tools, and you can see how professional the dancers are by how they roll with it and integrate changes in real time!

That doesn’t mean a choreographer doesn’t come prepared, far from it! But real time R&D in rehearsal is part of the process, and to quote Yoda, "this is the way."

The guideline that usually an hour of rehearsal goes into each minute of choreography often still holds true. We can't wait to see the finished work!

Come experience DELVE at next weekend! Friday, May 22, and Saturday, May 23.
