These pictures are among the images and texts on our inspiration board for Tandem Biking and Other Dangerous Pastimes for Two. Come to the show to see how they're reflected in the final piece!

Thanks to everyone who came to A Vegan Kids Dance for Adults with Nudity in the Philly Fringe! We sold out all three shows and had people crowding in on the floor and standing in the back of the room. So much love!

We're feeling energized by the performances, by the positive reception, and by the constructive feedback we're getting. So we're carrying all that with us as we dive back into choreography and move onwards towards our show at the Annenberg Center in February.

Did you see our work and have some thoughts you'd like to share? Leave a comment or let us know via our contact page. We'd love to hear from you.

To structure our dance for our upcoming Philly Fringe show, we put all the bits and pieces of choreography we have on little slips of paper, then figured out what should live next to what and imagined transitions. We wrote the final (well...current...evolving...) order on this sheet, over Russell the cow/sheep, whom we find very charming. We've spent the last few days working on filling out this structure, testing where it works and where it doesn't and revising and recreating as we go. We still need an ending. Ideas?

My personal list of highlights for the White Pines residency so far, (by Sarah):  

1.  Running around barefoot on the lawn at midnight.

2.  Improvising a beautiful choral song about an alligator.

3.  Holding Hannah's hand and leaping around until we couldn't move from laughing too hard.

4.  Making jellyfish dances, especially when Greg was being a flag.

5.  The hall of mirrors in the Estate, where I especially like pretending I'm in a palace.

6.  Sketching out our dance with four colors of sharpies.

7.  Thinking about dance all day every day.

We are here until Tuesday, making lots of dances for Project Cone and diving further in to some of the research we've been curious about in the last few months.  If you want to see our experiments up close and personal, come check out our showing Monday August 15th, 7pm, at Elkins Estate:  www.whitepinesproductions.org     The grounds are beautiful and the dancing is fun!
