Folding, flatness, corrugation. In this interdisciplinary movement workshop, we explore cardboard as a choreographic inspiration and performance partner.

Dance artist Michael Bodel's work integrates objects and materials as central choreographic elements and inspiration. His new work, the institute for folding, unpeels layers of human knowledge through dance, text and a stack of 30 sheets of cardboard. This "devising lab" is part of a regional series of workshops where participants explore Bodel's approach to creating dance with objects and also contribute ideas and choreography to this new dance project. 

This workshop is free and open to all levels. Prior experience with contemporary dance or movement theater is helpful but not required. Please contact us with any accessibility questions.

the institute for folding will premiere later in 2025. 

This event is free but tickets are required.
