loveDANCEmore's Sunday Series #1: Emmett Wilson and Masio Sangster

Emmett Wilson, a long-time SLC artist and former City Library garden coordinator now living in Philadelphia, will present AFTERNOON OF AN ALTER : a not-so-lonely solo, made by Wilson this year while in residency at  the Headlong Dance Theater’s Performance Institute. Their work puts not-so-altered egos and identities in corporeal conversation, using play to transport audiences on surreal and intimate journeys. They write: “Come wrangle with reality at a Rodeo Biscuit Bar aboard a spaceship bound for LadyPrince Planet driven by the pilot, Ew, the dancer. Cowboy Waitress, Mad Donna, Yung&Bizzy, and others will keep you (and Ew) company during the journey. BYOSelves.”

Emmett will share this evening with Masio Sangster, who loveDANCEmore first became aware of through their solo performance at Dominica Greene and Courtney Mazeika’s A Shedding in 2020. Emmett will also be holding a workshop earlier in the day on Sunday, August 29 from 2 to 4 pm.
