Program Notes
In late March 2020, Washington State issued a stay-at-home order for all residents in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Seattle Dance Collective artistic directors Noelani Pantastico and James Yoichi Moore expeditiously curated a program entitled Continuum: Bridging the Distance to create and present dance within the new, unconventional parameters.
The artists involved were given 24 total rehearsal hours to create a 3-5 minute piece for the program. These works were rehearsed in isolation, filmed in various locations around Seattle, and then presented online.
