Bloom: A Landscape of New Dances

Friday, May 18, 2012  -  Sunday, May 27, 2012

New dances sprout in abundance as Project: Motion concludes its 25th anniversary season with home grown choreography from its collective members. Inspired by the beauty of Memphis gardens and green spaces, Project: Motion digs down deep, discovering fertile ground for collaborating, exploring and cultivating new vibrant dance works. Throughout the creative process, each choreographer will form a tangible connection with a section of a garden, observing it through the seasons and documenting all the changes during the rehearsal process.
