THE ARTISTS and the DISCUSSIONS
Esther Palmer
You, Unique, Universal/only shallow people straddles the boundaries between performance and workshop through improvised dance inspired by the relationship between the unique and the universal body, and between the experiential and the visual body. The dancers welcome the audience to share in a conversational performance that attempts to look at these bodies full of curiosity and without judgment.
