The Pilot Dance Project Presents âTether,â by Ashley Horn
As the country slowly, but surely, trudges toward a somewhat normal life, we are beginning to see live events again, like this weekendâs performance of
Tether, performed by the Pilot Dance Project. Ashley Hornâs choreography will grace the Quaker-built Live Oak Friends Meeting House for three nights. Whether youâre a dance fan, you just want to be at a live event with people again, or even if you just want to get a glimpse at the buildingâs permanent art installation by Skyspaceâs designer James Turrell,
Yes, today is April Fools Day but there are no joke entries on this week’s list of best virtual bets. Instead, let’s look toward another, more obscure non-holiday holiday: International Fun at Work Day. And let us recommend that fun come in the form of an extended break to enjoy one of this week’s digital programs.
Who doesn’t like sneak peeks and spoilers? This Thursday, April 1, at 6:30 p.m. you can join Contemporary Arts Museum Houston for an excerpt from “
Rule #4: Don’t walk on the sidewalk,” a dance work from Hope Stone Dance that will be presented in full this summer. The virtual performance, filmed at CAMH last fall, features five women – Jacquelyne Boe, Kayla Collymore, Rachael Hutto, Lindsey McGill, and Brit Wallis-McGrath – in an exploration of the societal rules women are encouraged to observe. You can view the work-in-progress for free here, and remember to check back with Hope Stone Dance for the complete work in July.
