Mahaney Arts Center, Dance Theatre

Through subtle sensing, ie interoception, along with an understanding of the grounding parameters of biomechanics, physiology, and physics as defined in The Axis Syllabus©, we can investigate, feel into, and come to know where we are in space and time. 

An anti-diet dance theater performance that uses an intersectional approach to understand anti-fatness in relation to capitalism, race, and patriarchy through an historic lens, current analysis, and personal experience. Using ensemble and solo dance, song, storytelling, research, and projections, this one-hour show is also about body liberation, pleasure, dancing alone in the mirror, eating mangoes, and shaking off that which binds us.

Performed by Laura Haines, Winnie Looby, Alex Heisler, Zoraya Hightower, Hadley Mueller, Rhonda Doonan, and Rachel Siegel.
