SUMMARY:Optimistic Voices (Work-in-progress) | Juliana F. May
DESCRIPTION:Optimistic Voices probes the intractable contradictions of family\, eroticism\, and motherhood. Influenced by Postmodern dance\, musical theater\, and Bob Fosse’s sexed-yet-sexless movement idiom\, May continues to refine her signature song/text cycles\, using repetition and off-kilter rhythms in hot pursuit of a new kind of performative language. The world premiere of Optimistic Voices will be in the fall of 2025. \n\nChoreographed\, written\, and directed by Juliana F. May\nPerformers: Justin Faircloth\, Wendell Gray\, Lucy Kaminsky\, Gwendolyn Knapp\, Kayvon Pourazar\, Anh Vo\nSound Design: Clara Hunter Latham\nLighting design: Chloe Z. Brown\nCostume design: Mariana Valencia\nDramaturgy: Hilary Clark\nProducers: Miranda Brown and Shana Crawford \n\nA Guggenheim and New York Foundation for the Arts Fellow\, Juliana F. May has created nine works since 2002\, including eight evening-length pieces with commissions and encore performances from Dance Theater Workshop\, New York Live Arts\, The Chocolate Factory Theater\, Barnard College\, The New School\, Joyce SoHo\, The American Realness Festival and Abrons Arts Center. May has been awarded grants and residencies through The Map Fund\, The Jerome Foundation\, Lower Manhattan Cultural Council (LMCC)\, Gibney Dance In Process and The Maggie Allesee National Center for Choreography. In 2002\, May received her BA in Dance and Art History from Oberlin College\, and\, in 2012\, she received an MFA in Choreography from the University Wisconsin-Milwaukee. May served as the Artistic Advisor for New York Live Arts’ Fresh Tracks Residency Program from 2017-2019 and has been on faculty at Sarah Lawrence College since 2017. May’s work Folk Incest was nominated for a 2019 New York Dance and Performance Award for outstanding production as well as touring to ImpulsTanz in Vienna\, Austria. Juliana’s most recent work Family Happiness\, co-commissioned by The Chocolate Factory Theater and Abrons Arts Center\, premiered in May of 2023 and had encore performances in 2024 at The Chocolate Factory Theater.  \n\nOptimistic Voices is supported by a NYSCA support for artists grant and a NYSCA organizational grant in addition to residencies at Mercury Store\, The Invisible Dog and The Chocolate Factory Theater.

SUMMARY:Mammal Mountain (Work-in-progress) | Ivy Baldwin Dance
DESCRIPTION:Mammal Mountain\, a multidisciplinary dance commissioned by NYU Skirball (premiere April ‘26)\, includes long-time collaborators: performers Eleanor Smith\, Anna Adams Stark\, Darrin Wright\, Saúl Ulerio\, and choreographer Ivy Baldwin; composition by Justin Jones with an original song by Ryan Tracy; lighting by Amanda Ringger; and visual design in collaboration with artist Inna Babaeva. \nMammal Mountain takes inspiration from Ken Russell’s 1969 film adaptation of D.H Lawrence’s Women In Love\, specifically Gudrun’s “dance with highland cattle”—a ritual between woman and animal\, of seduction\, submission\, fear\, sensuality\, aggression. Visually\, the dance incorporates mammalian hides\, specifically cows—used as second skins\, physical terrains\, paintings\, weapons\, and objects of desire. \nMammal Mountain is commissioned by NYU Skirball\, with additional development support provided by Lower Manhattan Cultural Council\, Marble House Project\, Groundworks\, The Charles and Joan Gross Family Foundation\, Dugas Family Foundation\, and Ivy Baldwin Dance Commissioning Circle Members.  \n\nIvy Baldwin is a NY-based choreographer\, performer\, educator\, and founder of Ivy Baldwin Dance\, Inc. (est. 1999). Commissions include BAM Next Wave\, DTW\, NYLA\, Chocolate Factory\, Abrons Arts Center\, Joyce Theater (Joyce Unleashed)\, American Dance Institute\, The Philip Johnson Glass House\, The Wooden Floor\, Russel Wright Design Center\, and LaMaMa. Select awards include Guggenheim\, Bogliasco and Jerome Foundation Fellowships\, Gibney DiP\, NYFA\, LMCC\, 92Y\, MacDowell\, Yaddo\, Movement Research\, JCAL\, and Trust for Mutual Understanding. Her work has been presented by The New Museum\, MASS MoCA\, REDCAT\, and Dance Center at Columbia College Chicago\, and internationally in Germany\, Romania\, and Italy.
