From January through April of 2010, Clinard Dance Theatre was in residence at the Chicago Cultural Center, through the center's Dance Bridge program. During this residency they began building their latest work, From the Arctic to the Middle East (Broken Narratives by An American Flamenco Dancer).
Over the past two years Artistic Director, Wendy Clinard, has collected and arranged written scraps of natural and human histories taken from recent travels, books, and random encounters. These writings are integrated with original music composed by Steve Gibons,www.gypsyrhythmproject.com and live video projections by Marco Ferrari.
Each chapter asks about the individual’s place in the buried generations of humans and eternity. The disparate sections, true stories, facts, ideas, sounds and movements merge to create a complex picture of our world challenged by the larger contexts we live amongst.
