Wine from Mud: A Dance Performance
by Emotions Physical Theatre

Experience a tale of the creative impulse stagnating and exploding, mediated by wine.
Two performances: Fri., June 14 & Sat., June 15 at 7pm.
Emotions Physical Theatre serves as a bridge between art and entertainment. Using an organic blend of contemporary dance with hip-hop, ballet, gymnastics, and breakdance, we are committed to making dance theater that is fun, accessible, and innovative. We break down walls between stage performance and spectators to create an experience for audience members that goes way beyond a typical dance show by including audience participation and by creating in unique spaces. We believe that dance theater should be transparent and easy to understand while inspiring thought and communicating ideas in a clear and aesthetically pleasing way.
We create dance art with the goal of fostering personal growth. We incorporate research from psychology and sociology into our productions so an audience member walks away . . . with a thought-provoking tidbit of practical information.
We provide outstanding education programs in K-12 schools. Our Read and Write Program helps students learn the parts of speech by equating them to elements of choreography. . . . Artistic Director, Shawn Rawls grew up in an urban arts school and knows firsthand how a high-quality dance program can change a student's life.
We are actively creating a positive arts community by offering low-cost workshops for dancers, providing opportunities for emerging choreographers to show their work, and offering paid contracts to dancers, teachers, and choreographers. We hire and collaborate with artists from all backgrounds, ethnicities, and genders because we believe this creates resilience, understanding, and cooperation with our fellow artists and helps us all develop empathy and a wider understanding of the world we share. . . .
