Malashock Dance: 'Cultivate'

From the organizers:
CULTIVATE deepens Malashock Dance’s relationships with San Diego Choreographers through new commissions and remounted works that highlight the artistic breadth of our community.

PROGRAM
You Are Here/Usted Está Aquí
The stage premiere You Are Here/Usted Está Aquí, a multi-iteration dance project that integrates a wide range of oral histories from San Diego residents and visitors to bring diverse personal narratives to life.

SEED Suite
The inaugural SEED Suite, a new initiative that invites choreographers from the prior season’s SEED Concert (formerly known as Everyday Dances) to remount their work. This year’s SEED Suite will include work by Gina Bolles Sorensen and Kyle Sorensen, Khamla Somphanh, and Viviana Alcazar.

Companions
A remount of the 2024 San Diego Museum of Art commissioned piece Companions, by Artistic Director Christopher K. Morgan and Founding Director John Malashock, who each created a dance responding to the painting A Child’s Companion by Arshile Gorky.

The Dulling Effect
The world premiere of Artistic Director Christopher K. Morgan’s The Dulling Effect. Inspired by a 1934 Harvard study on how radio has a dulling effect on the higher mental processes of the listener, Christopher’s curiosity on how that dulling effect may have increased over the last 90 years of technology, and his concern that current political and legislative initiatives in the US are attempting to homogenize citizens, rather than celebrating their unique individual beauty.
