Looking Back:

SKETCH 12: Dear Diary - July 15 & 16, 2022
Cowell Theater, Fort Mason Center for the Arts.

"It’s rare to have time and support for the kind of risk-taking Seiwert has championed with the Sketch series—and a privilege to witness." - Karen Hildenbrand, fjord

“How does looking to the past illuminate our way forward?”

SKETCH 12: Dear Diary presented three innovative new dance works exploring the bittersweet complexity of nostalgia. During a highly collaborative five-week laboratory, choreographers Amy Seiwert, Natasha Adorlee, and Joshua L. Peugh created new ballet-based work while participating in a “crit group,” a creative feedback process rarely seen in ballet settings. The result is three bold new works that welcome the choreographers, dance artists, and audience to take risks, shed old habits, and consider new perspectives. Read more about SKETCH 12.
