"Exhilarating, uninhibited, and adventurous." --The Brooklyn Rail

Thank You For Coming, a series of works by choreographer/director Faye Driscoll, focus on how you experience yourself in relation to other bodies and the spaces you inhabit. During the Connecticut premiere of the dance theater work Attendance, dancers pass through ever-morphing states of physical entanglement. Intimately staged in the round, Ms. Driscoll crafts a heightened reality of observation, invitation, and interdependence. The audience and performers share a dynamic, joyful ritual of action and transformation. Ms. Driscoll was Wesleyan's 2014-15 Creative Campus Fellow in Dance.
