Untamed Grace – A Performance Journey of Improv and Site

"Untamed Grace - A Performance Journey of Improv and Site" promises an immersive journey through St. John's Grace and its gothic sanctuary as the audience promenades through its sacred and utilitarian spaces. This unique performance is the culmination of a five-day intensive collaboration, bringing together a diverse group of performers. Some have a longstanding creative history, while others are meeting for the first time, uniting from places like Toronto, Canada, New York City, and Boston. Renowned choreographer Stephan Koplowitz directs and designs this innovative project, guiding the participants in crafting an unforgettable experience. Additionally, live music by Nusantara Arts, under the direction of Matt Dunning, enriches the atmosphere, adding depth to the performance's resonance.

Presented by Nancy Hughes, Center Mouvement
