Throughout the four weeks, 50collective will be Passing Through five destinations – New York, Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, and Seattle. In each city, they will perform Passing Through at traditional theater venues as well as site-specific outdoor performances and will lead workshops for both dancers and the public in collaboration with local arts organizations, venues and dance studios.
Between cities, 50collective will spontaneously perform Passing Through at public parks and in small towns. The entire journey will be photographed, filmed, and blogged.
