Dancing Conversation: Changing the Rules (Monica Bill Barnes and Robbie Saenz de Viteri)

Presented by The National Center for Choreography at the University of Akron at Online/Virtual Space

Join The National Center for Choreography at The University of Akron (NCCAkron) for Dancing Conversation: Changing the Rules with choreographer Monica Bill Barnes (New York, NY) and creative producing director / performer Robbie Saenz de Viteri (New York, NY) on Thursday, September 16, at 7 pm ET. This free, virtual public event invites Barnes and Saenz de Viteri of Monica Bill Barnes & Company to share video excerpts and discuss their collaborative work together. Beyond choreographing dance, the conversation will unpack how bringing dance into spaces where it does not belong influences the movement and becomes creative nonfiction performance.

This event will be streamed through NCCAkron’s YouTube channel.

Dancing Conversations are free public events that locate dance among broader topics and offer an opportunity to demonstrate the aesthetic range within the dance field. All our 2021 Dancing Conversations — on dance & music, women & witchcraft, Black male choreographers, and queer movements — are available on our YouTube channel.
