Description

This fall, BRD is thrilled to return to the Firehouse Arts and Events Center for a repertory concert featuring a unique collection of new and previously loved works. Missed Connections is about the many human connections that are made, delayed, yearned for, or let go.

 

In Anna Bauer’s piece “Breakfast,” the dancers dive deep into a fleeting moment of connection and familiarity. Shannon Mockli’s sweeping “What Once Was Held” (previously performed by BRD in 2018) is an audience favorite about the tenuous nature of memories. “Tricity,” by Robert Kitsos, delves into the strange phenomenon of electricity and the energetic power of the color yellow. Joshua Manculich describes his visually stunning work, “Manners,” as a “reflection of the ways in which we house etiquette.” In Morgan Walker’s “Inside Outsider,” the athletic choreography depicts the anxiety that grows out of isolation. “Spare Me,” choreographed by Morgan Sandlin, is a striking and joyful romp through the bowling alleys of our collective childhoods. Missed Connections will also feature the first iteration of a new process-driven work choreographed by BRD member Cecelia Hanford.

 

To serve vulnerable populations, masking will be required at the 4:30 PM performances on November 12 & 19. Masking is welcome but not required at all other performances times.

 

REFUND POLICY: Tickets may be refunded up to 12 hours after purchase. After this window, all tickets are non-refundable.

Bellingham Repertory Dance

Established in 2005, Bellingham Repertory Dance is a dancer-run and directed 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that strives to bring vibrant, contemporary dance to the community. BRD is an ever-changing collection of versatile individuals from an array of backgrounds working toward new goals and skills every season. BRD encourages dialogue amongst current and new collective members to shape the next stage in the company’s story. The collective creates opportunities for accomplished artists to perform and create works by both established and emerging choreographers. BRD encourages and facilitates collaborative opportunities across disciplines within the Bellingham arts community and offers both community classes and annual youth programs. BRD also facilitates master classes with guest artists, the 7-Day Dance Festival, and occasional rehearsals open for public viewing.

 

Participation in the organization is open to all community members, while the artistic members of BRD are selected each season through audition. All artistic members share performative, educational, and administrative duties. Each season, BRD elects a board, and a leadership team of returning members to serve as liaisons for the five branches of the organization: Education, Performance Planning, Communications, Fundraising, and Administration. Members are expected to attend monthly all-company meetings, quarterly Ethics & Equity meetings, monthly subcommittee meetings and weekly company classes.

 

BRD is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. For funding the company relies on ticket sales and fundraising events, as well as monetary and in-kind donations from friends, family, and supporters of dance. Please visit our support page to make a donation.
