So FREEFALL got a room. During APAP this year, we booked a room at the Hilton (APAP Central) to stage a mash up of duet material from lie, lay, laid. In the coming year, we are going to be finding ways to recontextualize this full evening from 2008. So this was our first experiment.

hang out

Here we are, hanging out. A little food, a little wine. Folks came and went the whole night, including Isabella, our youngest guest.

So when we got what felt like an audience, we’d show a section we call “Apple”.

Then we’d offer three other sections, titles “Shape Waltz”, “Lego” and “Battleship?. Guests got to choose the order, and we then performed it.

We had a blast. Hope we can do something like it again sometime soon.

These are a few stills from the movie adaptation Lynn Marie and Aeric are making of I’ll Crane for You, choreography by Deborah Hay.  Our process has involved closing down our Lower Manhattan studio into the most intimate of spaces.  We started in the bathroom, moved into the stairwell, and spent the last few weeks on the fire escape. One week in August a bus load of tourists in matching tie-dyed shirts spilled off the bus and milled around across the street taking their own photos and waving.  It was quite wonderful to “crane” for them.

This one feels done. With Wimbeldon in the background, dog in foreground, this felt like a portrait of sorts. Time to start a new one.
