PERFECT.RESPONSE is fueled by a cast of 11 dynamic dancer-actors, live music by The Welcome Matt, and an integrated theatrical design. It's something of a nontraditional musical! The work is performed in two parts, rooted in Contemporary dance forms, original music, deep collaboration, and community and audience engagement. There is something in it for everyone!
"...releasing perfectionism, and affirming the power of responsiveness, versus reactiveness, leaves us satiated." -Jen Norris Dance Reviews
CALI & CO dance in Co-Lab with The Welcome Matt believe that our actions, movement, language matter; and rigorously and lovingly work to align our intentions with impact. We acknowledge the responsibility that comes with making live performance, and the trust/relationship building necessary to honor diversity in our creative practices. We believe that everyone is already dancing, choreographing & improvising their daily lives, embodying and sharing their gifts, as well as their struggle. We seek to honor our performers and audiences by co-creating work that is collaborative, in shared-purpose/shared leadership that also challenges conditioned perspectives and constructs. We are also deeply-rooted in the interconnectedness of dance and live music, and have been collaborating to create original works in the SF Bay Area and beyond since 2010.
