About
Impromptu is a series of five experimental screendances commissioned by Debra Noble, the California State University, Fullerton (CSUF) Director of Dance Repertory and Performance with direction and editing by Charlotte, original music by Aaron Chavez with Natalia Yates, visual art by Michelle Oosterbaan, and visual effects by Jaime Cano. During the height of the COVID pandemic shut-downs, the ensemble of CSUF dancers assembled do-it-yourself green screen kits at home for recording their individual performances. The solo performances are collaged into shared 2D and 2.5D space playing with the push and pull of dimensional elasticity. Highly crafted, yet spontaneously felt, this series of impromptus will premiere in late 2021 or early 2022.
