Review: Are You Listening to Me?
a Tapestry Dance Company Production
"Without silence there could be no rhythm."
My heart is beating, are you listening? Can you hear the lives that are changing "one step at a time"?
In this production, Tapestry Dance Company gives you laughter, love, and of course, rhythm. Big hearts, each heart, "everyone is everything." From the director of Acia "Capital G" Gray and guest artist Zell Miller III, the dance artist make decisions to listen, be heard, and pay attention. Something in the way they move makes me loud. Believe the hype! Tapestry is truth. There is nothing shy about what they are saying and how loud their souls speak and I am happy to be in this space. If I sat on my mouth they wouldn't know how loud I love them. So I cheer, say "Let's Go!" "WORK!" because to me their spirits deserve to be loved in a way they can recognize. Oh and because YOU CAN"T DO IT! So why not cheer in amazement!? Without hesitation Acia gives us, the audience, all of them all the time.
Pay Attention:
The girls bark and bite! Falling short to no man, anything he can do she can do too. "Sassy" Siobhan Cook, Tanya "Cutesy" Rivard, and Brenna "Bravo" Kuhn are sure and calm and beautiful and soft and daring. And I am proud to be a woman.
Spoken into existence I am proud to be a poet. Zell Z3 Miller III is "Hip hop down to his socks" and if I weren't a Gully Princess myself I'd want to be him. Filling space with words spoken from the tongue of wit. What you didn't understand from the dance he translates.
Boys Will Be Boys:
Dancing hard and rough and clear and loving are Matty "Heart-healer" Shields, Travis "Be Smooth" Knights, and Thomas "Crazy Knees" Wadelton (P.S. "Crazy Knees" debut is done with effort, guts, and care... "this is only the beginning...").
This company gives you all the tap you need in a first kiss. If you missed Are You Listening to Me? you probably take more than art for granted. Be alive. Be bold. Be free www.tapestry.org
Stay tuned....
*the nicknames given to the artist
are from the mind of Ebony not to
be confused with absolute or with
disrespect.
