THE GAMES WE DANCE
A series of interactive dance and music performances on public Atlanta playgrounds. We reimagined popular childhood games like Freeze Tag, Simon Says, jumping rope, Hide-and-Seek and others, through the lens of dance to create a dynamic, fun, and engaging spectacle for audiences of all ages. Team of musicians played live to accompany performers. They created a playful soundscape, adding a layer of magic and emphasizing something special happening in a common public space. Each event ended with a short free class for children - either hula hooping or dance.
All performances were free to attend.
Choreographic direction: Nadya Zeitlin.
Collaborating performers: Gabby Duncan, Lindsay Duncan, Angelita Itzanami, Amber Kirchner, Merryn McKeough, Meaghan Novoa, Rose Shields.
Musicians Dan Carey Bailey, Quinn Mason and Chris Suárez, Scott Box.
SCHEDULE:
Oct 2, 3pm & 4pm, Grant Park Playground

The basis of this work was created for Hambidge Art Auction 2022. Our team was so happy to take this work further to wider audiences.
