Juliette Mapp + Vicky Shick

Friday, December 18 | 7:30PM

Saturday, December 19 | 7:30PM

Juliette Mapp and Vicky Shick, friends for over 30 years, will each perform a piece reflecting their current interests in movement, structure, and meaning-making, while celebrating their connection and shared sensibility. Their first shared performance  was An Evening of Days as part of Arts on Site’s The Bang Group Festival in 2024.

Returning to Danspace after more than a decade, Juliette Mapp‘s Another Free Day is a solo meditation on dancing, artistic influences, and sustaining a creative physical practice and identity. Another Free Day is a continuation of Juliette’s 30-year-long solo studio practice where she explores how dance, through its ephemeral nature, can help us be truly alive and potentially free from the fear and burden of mortality.

Vicky Shick’s Including You is a stitched-together collage of slightly askew, detailed vignettes. Physically robust and quietly pedestrian, this “remake version” lives amidst performer/artist Jon Kinzel’s singular object constructions enhancing the already glorious architectural landscape of Danspace Project’s sanctuary space. Non sequiturs gently bump up against each other, and along with sound and Kinzel’s pieces, our intimacies and vulnerabilities unfold. There’s big dancing too, all offering warmth, the familiar, and oddball camaraderie. In addition to Kinzel and Shick, Jennifer Lafferty, Marilyn Maywald Yahel, Mor Mendel, Jimena Paz, and Cherrie Yu—a cast from four continents and four decades join and inhabit this tiny respite from our world.
