PLATFORM Part 1 * DeAnna Pellecchia & Matt Samolis: The Politics of Shoes

DeAnna Pellecchia & Matt Samolis: PLATFORM Part 2 *
choreographed and improvised dance with live music
performed live on Sunday May 24th, 2009
The Politics of Shoes @mobius (www.mobius.org)

Originally designed for the stage, PLATFORM can be adapted to any performance space and includes a series of movement structures both set and improvisational which take place in , on and around dozens of platform shoes. The solo addresses the socio-political "platforms" of our time. Adorned in red, white and blue DeAnna incorporates strong visual imagery with sharp, disjointed choreography to comment on the personal choices we as Americans make on a daily basis. Matt Samolis accompanies on tenor banjo with a mash up of americana from different genres and styles, adding a layer of association and depth to the imagery set in motion by the visual movement.
