Radioactive Practice
Film • 30min • 2022
A Film by Jeremy Jacob • Choreography by Abby Zbikowski • Featuring Alex Gossen, Kashia Kancey, Fiona Lundie, Jennifer Meckley, Ben Roach, Jinsei Sato
Choreographer Abby Zbikowski presents a rigorous, highly physical, often ecstatic dance work in intimate, onstage seating. This Bessie Award–winning choreographer and her company members (performers with wide-ranging movement backgrounds, including postmodern dance, synchronized swimming, African forms, and martial arts, among others) collaborate with Senegalese dance artist Momar Ndiaye to develop a complex, demanding, and perplexing physicality that confronts expectations and dives into the unknown. Radioactive Practice gives the audience an up-close view of the dancers, shattering assumptions about established forms while testing their physical and mental limits.
Created with generous support from Dance Umbrella and The Nathan M. Clark Foundation.
