EDUCATION & OUTREACH FOR ADULTS
DANCE TALKS
The Dance Talks series brings together renowned artists in the field of dance in a discussion format in front of a live audience. Offered four times a year in conjunction with OBT's season programming, this free forum gives audiences a chance to hear directly from the artists and critics who have significantly shaped the aesthetic, contemporary and historic evolution of ballet and the creative process. Moderated by Christopher Stowell, the 75 minute forums make extensive use of historical video footage and photography to assist audience members in contextualizing the work(s) under discussion. Introduced as part of Christopher Stowell's initial year as Artistic Director, The Dance Talks series is unique among Portland's artistic opportunities and was an instant success with the city's dance-going community.
These non-ticketed events are FREE and open to the public. Reservations are requested as seating is limited.
