Wednesday January 15th, 2020 – In preparation for their 20th season, Amanda Selwyn Dance Theatre tonight opened their studio doors to friends of the Company for a preview of Hindsight, which will have its premiere performances March 5th – 7th, 2020, at the Baruch Performing Arts Center. Hindsight looks back fondly on two decades of Selwyn repertory, whilst also looking ahead – in new choreography – to the promise of the future.
This evening’s open rehearsal took place at the Ailey Studios. As audience members settled in, we watched the dancers taking class. Amanda then welcomed us, and introduced her talented dancers in a series of excerpts from past productions which will be integrated into Hindsight as well as new passages created specially for the upcoming performances.
The Selwyn dancers are exhilarating to watch, each one very much a part of the collective whilst also displaying distinctive personalities; they shine forth in these images from the evening’s presentation captured by the renowned dance photographer Christopher Duggan:
