It is with great excitement that we officially announce the premiere of our new work STILL STANDING coming this November!
STILL STANDING is commissioned and presented through Maryland Theatre for the Performing Arts and choreographed and performed by Orange Grove Dance. STILL STANDING is a site-specific, socially distance performance experience taking place in Annapolis this fall.
Come experience the Park Place Lawn from the Veteran’s Overlook as you have never seen it before with Orange Grove Dance’s transformative site-specific choreography and immersive lighting design. Performed on the Lawn and inspired by the reflective nature of the adjacent Annapolis National Cemetery, OGD will use custom built wireless lighting units to pivot performers and audiences alike into a surreal luminescent landscape that reveals the connection and power of the collective across difficult times and distance.
The design landscape of over 100 wireless lighting units fill the Lawn, creating an impressive grid of light, memory, and hope that mirrors the precise rows of almost 3000 identical gravestones that sprawl towards the Annapolis horizon. The dance takes place among this ever expanding and contracting light garden as performers move and refocus the lights on each other from distances far and near. The choreography will run the gamut of virtuosic space-traversing solos to intimate partnering duets and cyclonic group sections. Each dancer and light serves as a reminder of the importance
of the individual and the importance of casting our lights together out into the dark and unknown.
Tickets are limited due to the nature of this performance and the social-distancing protocol that MTPA and OGD are taking incredibly seriously, both for audience and performers alike. Grab your tickets today through @whatsuptix
