BAX second year Artist in Residence (AIR) Jessie Young will be sharing a glimpse of her new solo work in an Open Studio Share at BAX’s Theater on Saturday, November 19. Tickets are free and a live streaming option is available.
This new piece by dancemaker/choreographer Jessie Young uses words to delve into the chasm between the body and the mouth, the body and the voice. A landscape of expansive storytelling, this capacious performance experiment works to unearth information about the self that has not yet been named, a ghost story about all that has not yet been said. Direction by Iris McCloughan with a conversation with choreographer, dancer and writer Angie Pittman. This show will feature ASL interpretation.
Jessie Young is a Brooklyn-based choreographer, performer and teacher originally from Port Angeles, Washington. She makes dance-based atmospheres and ecologies tuned through organic yet exacting physicality. Her performances are oceanic and panoramic, a slow burn of movement that creates a kind of weather.
