"Completing Wreck"
Tuesday October 23, 2007 from 4:00pm - 5:30pm
Barbara Barker Center for Dance, University of Minnesota
500 21st Avenue South
Minneapolis, Minnesota 55455 Get Directions
As a part of the second year of the University of Minnesota Symposium on Time, the locally based dance theater company Black Label Movement led by Director of the University's Dance Program Carl Flink continues its examination of the presence of time in the creation of their evening length work Wreck with an open rehearsal featuring all new material. This dynamic series of open rehearsals and formal showings offer observers an unparalleled opportunity to experience and intimately engage the making of this challenging work through dialogue with Flink and the Black Label Movement performers. In Wreck, time plays a unique and pivotal role as the piece will last only as long as it takes 10 people to breathe the last oxygen in a watertight compartment of an ore boat that lies recently sunk on the bottom of Lake Superior. Sponsored by the Institute for Advanced Study, University Dance Theater and the Office for the Vice President for Research as part of the University Symposium on Time.

The completed version of Wreck will premiere during a two week run in January 2008 at the fabulous Southern Theater: http://www.southerntheater.org/2008_01_black_label_movement.htm
