| Prospect Dance Group seeks to create innovative dance works through interdisciplinary collaboration and is committed to building the central Virginia dance community. Directors Ashley Thorndike (choreography/performance/media,) Peter Swendsen (music/media/technology,) and Dinah Gray (choreography/performance/text) founded Prospect Dance Group to facilitate their continued work in that unique and elusive blend of personality and energy necessary for a truly collaborative artistic practice. While each contribute to particular areas of each piece's realization, the three artists strive to create work unconcerned with disciplinary boundaries, performances where an audience's experience is always newly informed through the layering of sound, film, and movement. Through this approach, Prospect Dance Group aims to interact with a diverse audience, exploring the intersection of the arts through movement. The company is completed by guest dance and music performers who participate in both the performance and outreach aspects of Prospect Dance Group. |
