BYOC (bring your own coffee)
Once a month, Julia Mayer will open
her weekly Friday morning solo movement practice to the public.
This series of engaged, informal performances will occur on the
First Friday of every month at 9:30am. Performances will last approximately
20 minutes, with the opportunity for informal discussion afterward.
As a mother and full-time worker in
her forties, Julia is seeking new paradigms for performance—places,
processes, practices—so she can stay active and challenge
herself as a dancer and activate and challenge audiences to join
her in creating and experiencing unique moments of the body moving.
Julia has been dancing in Chicago for
nearly 20 years. Her current movement practice is influenced by
her studies with Deborah Hay and her years dancing with Chicago-based
improvisation collective FUSE.
“[her] movement is refreshingly
off the map” - Chicago Reader
“a delicately luminous, inquisitive stage presence”
