About DanceTheYard's performance
Alison Manning and Jesse Keller Jason will appear in the politically-charged collaborative work At Home in the Clouds (NY premiere,) based on a short story by Alison Weaver and set to a sound score created by Phil DaRosa (mature content in the recorded story). The piece explores the themes of abortion, life, death, choice and love, with the dancers constantly shifting perspectives between the various characters in the text; the mother, the babies, the doctor, and more. The Manning/Keller company, titled DanceTheYard, was formed in 2011 and is The Yard's resident dance collective, having also appeared at Ohio U, the Women in Motion Festival, Jacob's pillow, Triskelion Arts, and others.
