What struck My fancy.
Performance Viewing and Response Prompt:
What Struck My Fancy?
Please find a dance or other movement-prioritized event and watch it. It should be no shorter than 30 minutes,
and ideally more in the range of one hour. Given the restrictions due to the global pandemic, I realize the event
may well end up being an online viewing experience. However, if you have the option of safely attending and
watching the event live, that’d be preferable.
As a way to articulate a response to your viewing experience, please write a 1-2 page report that addresses
the following:
Provide a basic description of what you viewed, including details of who, what, where, when (please include a
link, if it was an online viewing activity)
Discuss what may have surprised you about the event/performance?
Describe something specific that you observed about physicality and usage of the body that in some way
resonates because of the work we’ve done in class thus far? Explain.
This is not meant to be busy work. Please use this as an opportunity to thoughtfully explore the work of this
class, driven by your interest(s) and your improved capacity for noticing and learning about movement. I’m not
looking for a formal essay, here, not something that tells me what you think I want to hear. It should be
substantive, and it can also be creative. It can also be a vehicle for exploring an unresolved question.
