Victory Gardens' Crip Slam presents
Heidi Latsky Dance
in an Alliger Arts Production

GIMP (excerpts)

Hosted by Alana Wallace of Dance>Detour

GIMP - an evening of unexpected movement portraits.

New York based Heidi Latsky and her company present a roster of performers who embody unique physical virtuosity. Outstanding technique, raw beauty and the physical poetry of risk- taking propel the artists and the audience into the collective unknown.

GIMP confronts the audience with their preconceptions, challenging us to re-think accepted notions about dance, performance, and body image: an exploration, that dives into the heart of difference, voyeurism, and the unexpected.
