Dredged and Dammed: A Confluence is a raw and spirited experimental dance piece created by transdisciplinary artist and choreographer Elizabeth Flinsch. This improvisation-based performance is a coming together of collaborators – musicians and movers – who together evoke an ethereal world that is simultaneously forming and disintegrating in real time.
Audiences will witness both an intimate elegy to the once wild Mississippi and a fragmented metaphor of the industrial attempts to control and restrain the river’s flow.
Collaborators include choreographer and mover Jesse Schmitz-Boyd, and Zachary Cohen, principal bassist of the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra.
