Dance with the Dancers of Heidi Duckler Dance Theatre! 

Come dressed in 60’s Mad Men spirit!

 

 “A Trace of Lipstick”, which expresses themes of shifting relationships among couples, will be performed in SPF:a Gallery amongst the existing furniture of the gallery.  The audience will view the work in the round, giving it a voyeuristic character.  Inspired by the TV series “Mad Men” and the hypocrisies of the early 1960’s, the choreography explores duplicity, intimacy and the compartmentalizing of private lives.

"Nostalgia - it's delicate, but potent. Teddy told me that in Greek, "nostalgia" literally means "the pain from an old wound." It's a twinge in your heart far more powerful than memory alone. This device isn't a spaceship, it's a time machine. It goes backwards, and forwards... it takes us to a place where we ache to go again. It's not called the wheel, it's called the carousel. It lets us travel the way a child travels - around and around, and back home again, to a place where we know we are loved." 

-Don Draper (Mad Men, Carousel Episode)
