PIMA Group is well-known for their experimental live music and dance innovations. Many of their works are collaborations with artists. In this performance of Look!, it is the historic space itself which is the collaborative partner. The site-specific setting of the Powel House offers a multitude of inspiring intrigues, inviting the audience to co-exist and even examine the setting of a historical home through contemporary dance.
Come share in the experience as PIMA performers take an intimate-sized group through the historic home in which Benjamin Franklins daughter, Sarah, shared in a dance with George Washington. As the audience moves throughout the rooms of the house, the gentle movement of the dancers creates an immersive experience. The setting of the Powel House Museum offers a multitude of inspiring intrigues, inviting the audience to interact with and examine this historic home through contemporary dance. The challenge of commenting upon the historical while maintaining a refreshing and new artistic aesthetic is of utmost interest to PIMA choreographer Melisa Putz. Look! is inspired by the colors, furniture and the beauty of a historical time period, a time when the Powel House hosted some of the most elegant dancing of the age.
