T A N Z S E R I E S // mouth to mouth
PERFORMANCES
Thurs-Sat Dec. 9-11 at 8pm
"In mouth to mouth Agami has woven together a disarming and beautifully crafted flow of ensembles small and large, as well as solo turns for several company dancers. She knows how to spread the wealth around and embrace the unique abilities of the dancers, including herself. While the movement can at times astonish you it also plays with an equal hand to subtle gestures and quiet pools of repose as in the opening which, in its length, somehow elevates silence to a near fearsome audibility."

ABOUT Ate9
Ate9 comes together to foster new and promising artists who are committed to a longer journey of research to master their craft. Artistic Director, Danielle Agami creates a range of work that explores the juxtaposition of subtlety and extreme physicality to find what is honest and human. Her work is accessible, yet thought provoking to audiences of all ages and backgrounds. As a company, Ate9 finds it essential to allow one to visit them in their studio, take their class, dialogue, and get closer so one can discover the joy that dance can bring. In addition, Agami and dancers dedicate time and effort to bring dance to the public education system, creating a meaningful meeting between young audiences and contemporary art.
