At Once "Dynamic" is a duet of solos by Deborah Hay adapted, combined, remade, and performed by Seattle dance artists Shannon Stewart and Mary Margaret Moore. For 14 years, American post-modern choreographer Hay created and taught solos to a group of selected dancers from around the world in a program called the Solo Performance Commissioning Project. Each soloist was tasked with practicing the performance of their solo daily for up to a year and adapting the work to make it their own before performing for a public audience. At Once "Dynamic" brings together 2009 solo At Once with 2012 solo "Dynamic" to create a new work framed by conversations and demonstrations exploring the enigmatic, subversive, and invaluable work of Deborah Hay.

Friday April 18th guests include: Erin Boberg Doughton (PICA), Mine Barber (Ten Tiny Dances), and Linda Austin (Performance Works Northwest).

Saturday April 19th guests include: Tahni Holt, Tracy Boyles, Meg McHutchinson, and Linda Austin.
