Seven months ago, a group of seniors involved in the Harvard dance community came up with the idea of creating an independent dance show. After nearly four years of choreographing, producing, directing, and dancing for student dance groups on campus, we envisioned this to be our final celebration of moving and creating together. This show, meant to encapsulate our feelings toward dance, letting go, embracing uncertainty, and remembering community, was titled “like a good conversation.”
Moving off-campus as a response to the Covid-19 pandemic uprooted what we wanted for our final semester as dancers, creators, students, and friends. Saying goodbye to dance, and to each other, felt surreal and incomplete. Sitting in our respective homes, now scattered around the country, we wanted to continue to make art together in these new circumstances. This work is a goodbye of sorts, but more so a celebration of making dance in the age of Zoom, of maintaining connection through creating and sharing, and of staying hopeful for what’s to come. Thanks for watching.
With love,
Abby, Angie, Deedee, Isabel, Maggie, Mara, and Sarah
