Hester Park Play Date



Wicked Sister Dance Theatre hosted a Choreographic Play Date at Hester Park in St Cloud on Saturday, May 13th. With support from a FORECAST Public Artworks Research & Development grant and support from the St Cloud Arts Commission, 10 Wicked Sister dancers and friends launched into gravity enhanced motion on the park's huge grass hill and investigated visual design on the architecture of a depression-era stone pathway and bridge.
Our Play Date also included dialogue between dancers and St Cloud community members about the movement we created as well as the overall process of developing performance for public sites. Information gathered from this experience will inform future choreography and public performance in St Cloud. Thanks to everyone who participated or supported this project!
