ABOUT BODY PASSAGES
ORIGINS In 2017, Chicago Danztheatre Ensemble (CDE) came together with The Chicago Poetry Center (CPC) to create an interactive poetry and dance residency and performance series called Body Passages. CDE and CPC pair professional dancers and poets to create their own artist-led projects fusing language and movement.
NOW IN 2018 In its second year, the 2018 Body Passages series welcomes four collaborative groups, with a total of 13 artists. This group varies in age, experience, race, gender and sexual identity, and belief systems. Over the course of 10 months, paired artists participate in ongoing conversations with other pairs around the theme of activation. .
MISSION Body Passages strives to contribute to the local Chicago community through workshops and performances while also supporting local Chicago artists and providing them with the opportunity to collaborate and perform.
