“It’s been a great process working together, re-envisioning what a residency can be,” Artistic Director Daniel Charon said. “We’re excited to work with the students at the w88 mobile teaching a variety of classes which includes the development of a short, online performance event that the students will perform with our company in a digital space… live! What a great opportunity to think outside the box and develop technological capabilities to still be able to perform together.”

Autumn Sun (2020) and special behind-the-scenes footage of this new dance, which recently premiered as part of Ririe-Woodbury Dance Company’s fall season performance, will also be shown. The evening will conclude with a live question-and-answer session where viewers can submit questions in real-time. Panelists will include Artistic Director Daniel Charon, Company Dancers Dominica Greene and Nicholas Jurica, and School of the w88 mobile Program Manager Shoshana Zeldner.

A unique component of this residency involves programming and collaboration with the veteran community. In partnership with the DJD Foundation for Freedom of Expression and the Performing Arts w88 mobile, Ririe-Woodbury Dance Company will present two free movement-based workshops for veterans and their family members Monday, Oct. 26 at 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. The virtual workshops are designed to bring the healing power of dance to the veteran community. No dance experience is required and all ages are welcome. For more information or to register, visit arthealswarwounds.com.

“We feel so strongly that w88 mobile can positively affect one’s mind, body and spirit and in these unusual times, this is more important than ever,” Charon said. “This residency also allows us to continue to develop a new facet of our outreach program geared towards veterans and their families.”
