Summaries

Summary Sentence: This dance explodes the duet form into a magically populated stage where image and reality collide.

Full Summary: Bridgman/Packer Dance explodes the duet form into a magically populated stage where image and reality collide, blurring the line between the real and virtual dancer.

In the new piece "Double Expose," Bridgman/Packer Dance explodes the duet form into a magically populated stage where image and reality collide, blurring the line between the real and virtual dancer. Creating striking images on scrims and directly on their bodies, the work wittily poses questions about identity, perception and expectation. Atlanta Premiere.

“An ingenious trompe l’oeil fusion of physical and video image bodies…merged and then disappeared with magical and fascinating suddenness.” — The New York Times
