Premiere of Would You Love Me If I Was A Worm?
Would You Still Love Me If I Was A Worm? (WYSLMIIWAW?) is a 14-minute multimedia dance performance that feels like a movie.
This work features a love story that is authentic, whimsical, and unconventional, told through a duet of manipulated phrases and improvisation structures. It is accompanied by a projected video, which takes inspiration from indie romance films, and a sound score that combines movie soundtracks with love songs of the past and present. WYSLMIIWAW? is choreographed by Christina McKinney in collaboration with the performers, Julia Phu and Marissa Schroeder, as a part of NC Dance Festival’s 24-25 Artist-in-Residence program.
