Event Navigation
Somewhere Between features FLOCK’s signature partnering, rich and complex movement, and heartfelt storytelling. This new work explores myths and childhood stories, unpacking how memory and imagination play into our reality and definitions of self. Co-choreographers Alice Klock and Florian Lochner are joined by a stunning group of guest artists in a program that offers a vibrantly physical and multilayered look at the possibilities within human connection.
Additional Event: Post-Performance Discussion on Thursday, March 23, 2023, immediately following the performance.
About the Artists
FLORIAN LOCHNER and ALICE KLOCK met while serving as dancers and Choreographic Fellows at Hubbard Street Dance Chicago. In 2017, they created FLOCK through which they perform their own work internationally and co-create new choreography for film and stage. As a team they have choreographed for multiple dance companies, universities, and cultural institutions including Hubbard Street Dance Chicago, Whim W’Him, Ballet Idaho, Orsolina 28, Seattle Dance Collective, Ballet Arkansas, Kultur O.H.G, the Goethe Institut, Adaptations Dance Theater, University of Iowa, Booker T Washington School for the Performing Arts, the Alonzo King LINES Ballet BFA, and the 92nd Street Y. In all their work, they strive to bring artists and audiences together in environments that are open, dynamic, and based on joy.
