Lots of good things going on this season.  I go back to teach a master class at my Alma Mater, George Washington University, this weekend.  Thrown into the deal is an improv session with the inimitable Maida Withers and Giselle Ruzany. The the list goes on: NOVEMBER 9:  Invisible Stories at Mole Hill Theater, Alstead, NH (see previous post) NOVEMBER 13: Invisible Stories performance at Curry College, Milton, MA DECEMBER 13: new duet shown informally at Third Life Choreographers Series http://kddcompany.wordpress.com/third-life-studio-choreographer-series/

November 9 7:30PM Mole Hill Theater Alstead, NH Invisible Stories is a dance in progression, a kind of movable feast of ideas and movements and books, conceived and performed by Kate Tarlow Morgan and Sarah Slifer Swift.  For this performance we are joined by visual artist Susan Erony and musician Stefan Brandstatter. We are working with books and the loss of books, the life and movement of language.  Charles Olson's in there too.  And the oceans that pour up out of the mines and lap at the edges of Avalonia.

Jose Mateo Ballet Theater's annual Dance for World Community Fest is a beautiful event.  I've enjoyed going to as a spectator for several years now, and this year I have a quartet of dancers performing a new quartet, "Find me in the Dance Floor."  To music by electronic music artist Mark Fell ( http://www.markfell.com ), the piece goes deeply into the roots of why we enjoy losing ourselves to dance.  We perform at 5:20, but be sure to check out as much of the festival as you can. more info at  http://www.danceforworldcommunity.org/
