Thanks to everyone who braved the awful weather and came out to see our first Mad Libs show – it went really well, and we’re expecting an even bigger crowd this month when the weather will hopefully cooperate more! Our next show is on March 15th at 8 pm, and we’ll have a special guest with us, in the form of past Geeksdanzer Jamie Campbell! We’re excited to perform with her again, so come out – you won’t want to miss this!

In addition, Ellen and the danzers will be presenting a workshop, Movement for the Improviser, on March 15th from 2 to 5 pm. Registration is limited, so head over to the Steel City Improv Theater workshop page to sign up!

And finally, a sneak peek of the antics that went on during our promotional photo shoot last weekend. Stay tuned in the coming weeks for the big announcement!

Hi All!

Thank you to everyone who came out and had their pants scared off by us at Manifestations – we had a great crowd and it was an amazing experience!

The first video footage of the show is up now; many thanks to Steel City Improv Theater for giving us the opportunity to perform in a theater space again!

Hi All!

The Indie Go Go Campaign for Manifestations has just gone LIVE! You can check it out here. Watch the video for a sneak peek at what you’ll see in the show, and check out our long list of fun perks, including a few special ones from our spectacular storyteller. You could get an out-of-print CD of his ghost story collection, a chance to have coffee with both of us and pick our brains, or even get the chance to be IN one of the stories we’ll be presenting! There’s something for everyone, so check it out, and donate to help us pay the dancers!

See you at the show!

Geeksdanz is thrilled to announce Manifestations! Visit the current projects page for full details!

This fall, Geeksdanz gets a little creepy with Manifestations, a new collaboration between dance and storytelling. Featuring a selection of ghost stories told live by professional storyteller Alan Irvine, Manifestations melds dance and story to create an intensely atmospheric performance that will chill your blood and make your skin crawl.

We’re still working on a venue and specific dates, so keep checking back for more information in the coming months!

Hi all!

Again, the danzers and I want to thank everyone who came to the show on April 19th – we had a great crowd and a great reception to our work!

If you missed it, don’t despair – we’ll have the DVD up for sale just as soon as I can get the video files all put together. In the meantime, enjoy this excerpt of the opening two movements:

Stay tuned for updates on our next projects!
