Anywhere/The Big 30

About

Anne-Marie Mulgrew and Dancers Company premiered Anywhere/The Big 30 (2016) at its 30th Anniversary concert, Christ Church Neighborhood House Theater, June 9-11, 2016, Philadelphia, PA. This major work is informed by the ambiances and architecture of the city which has nurtured Ms. Mulgrew's choreographic creations for 30 years. The work features choreography/concept by Anne-Marie Mulgrew in collaboration with Adam Vidiksis (composer) and Carmella Vassor- Johnson (video artist). The concept of 30 is the departure point. It examines one’s sense of time and space. The work aspires to look forward while reflecting on the past fusing dance, music, new technologies and film. Ideas explore sensations, memories and observations about one’s journey over time, the individual and the community, the relationships forged within a group, and how one is informed and impacted by the world we live in.
