Event Description

Lauren Putty White uses her mastery of improvisatory dance to live jazz music to share her take on living the phases of life through the lens of the camera phone. 

Becoming a mother has given White a new perspective on why people record life and relive it. 

The new work Glimpse is a suite for solos, duets, and the full ensemble. 

Integrating familial images with original live music and the dance experience, White intends to take the audience "on a kinetic journey of endearment and hope."

She will be joined by exceptional dance artists Joe Gonzalez, Sarah Warren, and CeCe Mitchell among many other dancers. 

Music Faculty at Drexel University, and Brent White on trombone will be joined by a 4 - piece ensemble with guitar, bass, drums and percussion. 

With each musician improvising freely to the original tunes, the dancers will collaborate with a mix of music, choreography and improvised play.
