An Evening of Dance Film Curator/Artistic Director Brandon Landscapes: An Evening of Dance Film Curator/Artistic Director Brandon Whited June 17, 2021 Center Stage Theater Director’s Note It is with great joy and pleasure that we welcome you back to the theater. It goes without saying that this has been an incredibly challenging year. While many industries have been effected by the pandemic in significant ways, the performing arts—and dance in particular—have endured devas- tating economic and structural ramifications. COVID’s impact on the arts has been widely un-addressed at the governmental level and it is due to the unshakeable support of arts advocates, donors, and community organizers that we are here today. As I tell my choreography students when they lament the narrow parameters of an assignment or creative prompt: Limitation liberates pos- sibility. Restriction activates creativity. The restrictions and limitations we have endured as a creative community over the past year offered a radical example of this lesson. With the whole world turning to digital, screen- based platforms for so many facets of our lives, the dance world made a collective pivot to dance film and live digital performance in order to continue to create and connect through art. While these efforts should be applauded and celebrated for the adaptability, ingenuity and perseverance they represent, we should not ignore the fact that for many in our commu- nity dance filmmaking has long been a central aspect of their practice. I say this is not to discount the creative shift that so many of us have nec- essarily embraced, but to honor and celebrate the rich history of dance on film. Dance Film can offer a visual experience that transcends space and time—the capacity to transport us. Film can rocket us across the globe; manifest imagined landscapes; evoke the familiar and nostalgic; and open doors to intimate, personal spaces. It has the power to destabilize our rela- tionship to time, and offer unique perspectives from which we can observe its chosen subject(s). Tonight’s offerings represent many of the different aesthetics, per- spectives and formats that emerge from the craft of dance filmmaking. I invite you to let the visual imaginary wash over you, and allow yourself to be moved. Thank you so much for spending the evening with us, and for your ongo- ing support of the performing arts. We hope to see you again soon! —Brandon Whited, Curator/Artistic Director Landscapes: An Evening of Dance Film A Vanished Day / The Errant Sea Robin Bisio Films/Katia Lepore Mrazek Creators: Robin Bisio & Katia Lepore Mrazek Music: Billy Winger Best Existence / Park For Animals Performer: Katia Lepore Mrazek Sylkies Psychopomp Dance Theater/Ryan Howard Direction: Ryan Howard Choreography: Shenandoah Harris Music: Riley Smith Production Assistant: Melissa Hartman Performers: Abigail Chuah, Nicole Flores, Shenandoah Harris & Erin White Lizard's Mouth HR Moves/Hannah Ruth Brothers Movement, Video & Editing: Hannah Ruth Brothers Sound & Editing: Simon Blondell Performer: Hannah Ruth Brothers Out There Victoria Finlayson Choreography & Video Editing: Victoria Finlayson Videographers: Hannah Ruth Brothers, Victoria Finlayson, Lydia Lamberth, Susan Shaberman, Mark Srednicki Original Score: Simon Blondell Performers: Hannah Ruth Brothers, Kara Le, Susan Shaberman, Eloise Uranga Ride UCSB Dance Company/Joshua Manculich Choreography: Joshua Manculich Music: Julia Wolfe Costumes: Beatriz Borbon Performers: Amity Beardsley, Jayne Butler, Kelly Gao, Erick Martinez, Sera Shahgholian, Dakota Smith, Jenny Thach, Andrew To, Sophia Yacap Intermission Desert Picnic Wild Beast Dance/Tammy Carrasco Direction & Choreography: Tammy Carrasco Video & Editing: Megan Davis Bushway Drone Operator: Stephen Sugden Photographer: Can Burns Lighting Director: Benoit Beauchamp Costume Designer Emma Scholl Music:Adam Crawley, djplie.com; Dr. Panayiotis, Kokoras, Magic Piano (Excerpt) Performers: Tim Bendernagel & Chloe London Renewal Psychopomp Dance Theater/Erin White Direction & Editing: Erin White Assistant Direction & Videography: Jacque Hartman & Ashley Wright Performer: Erin White #danzarestless Performed by Mauricio Vera (in 4 parts) Restless - Chilean in Alicante Spain Direction, Editing & Choreography: Eduardo Zúñiga Music: Ludwig Van Beethoven Orilla - Mexican in Montreal Canada Direction & Choreography: Edgar Zendejas Editing: Eduardo Zuniga Music: Ludwig Van Beethoven & Ernersto Sebastian Arias Cruzado Music Editing: Esdras Hernández Villar & Eduardo Zúñiga Ocaso - Spanish in Santiago de Chile Direction, Editing & Choreography: Esdras Hernández Villar Music: Ludwig Van Beethoven Mauricio - Uruguayan in Montevideo Uruguay Direction & Choreography: Ernersto Sebastian Arias Cruzado Music: Ludwig Van Beethoven & Esdras Hernández Villar Edited: Esdras Hernández Villar Interpreter and camera: Mauricio Vera Window Ballerina: Julia Bengtsson Director’s Pick Cygnus Direction: Cara Hagan & Robert Uehlin Choreography: Cara Hagan Cinematography & Editing: Robert Uehlin Music Gesture 1 by Mike Wall Performer: Cara Hagan Cygnus by Cara Hagan was selected by the Artistic Director to be featured in the Re:Emerge Festival.

Ms. Hagan’s film offers a depth of vision and mastery of the craft of dance filmmaking, and also features her riveting performance and presence as the subject of the film. Directors-Choreographers-Filmakers Robin Bisio: Kaita Lepore Mrazek and I found ourselves suddenly cut off from studio rehearsals and film production protocols during the pandemic.We decided to have some fun and make two iPhone films at the beach across the street.The beach was solace and spoke of mysteries that it carried for those who sat on the shores to listen. We did and are so glad to present A Vanished Day and The Errant Sea. Hannah Ruth Brothers seeks to discover what can be created with the materials at hand. Creating dance films with nothing more than her iPhone, she has danced on beaches, trails, and subway platforms, and in parking lots, grocery stores, and Am- trak bathrooms, as well as on many stages. She graduated with High Honors from Marlboro College, VT, with a BA in Dance, and has trained extensively in ballet, modern dance, contact improvisation, dance improvisation, West African dance, and yoga. Her work has been presented in New England; Orlando, FL; Berkeley, CA; and her hometown of Santa Barbara, CA, where she current- ly resides. Since 2016, Hannah Ruth has managed her private practice, Hannah Ruth Massage for Wellness, serving clients in the Santa Barbara area.

    DIVERSITY EN POINTE: MINIMIZING DISCRIMINATORY HIRING PRACTICES TO INCREASE BALLET’S CULTURAL RELEVANCE IN AMERICA Nicolle Mitchell Greenhood Major paper submitted to the faculty of Goucher College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Arts Administration 2016 Abstract Title of Thesis: DIVERSITY EN POINTE: MINIMIZING DISCRIMINATORY HIRING PRACTICES TO INCREASE BALLET’S CULTURAL RELEVANCE IN AMERICA Degree Candidate: Nicolle Mitchell Greenhood Degree and Year: Master of Arts in Arts Administration, 2016 Major Paper Directed by: Michael Crowley, M.A. Welsh Center for Graduate and Professional Studies Goucher College Ballet was established as a performing art form in fifteenth century French and Italian courts. Current American ballet stems from the vision of choreographer George Balanchine, who set ballet standards through his educational institution, School of American Ballet, and dance company, New York City Ballet. These organizations are currently the largest-budget performing company and training facility in the United States, and, along with other major US ballet companies, have adopted Balanchine’s preference for ultra thin, light skinned, young, heteronormative dancers. Due to their financial stability and power, these dance companies set the standard for ballet in America, making it difficult for dancers who do not fit these narrow characteristics to succeed and thrive in the field. The ballet field must adapt to an increasingly diverse society while upholding artistic integrity to the art form’s values. Those who live in America make up a heterogeneous community with a blend of worldwide cultures, but ballet has been slow to focus on diversity in company rosters.
