​Hide and Go...

Hide and Go... (2019)
Choreographed by Bailey Anderson
​

This dance is an exploration of passing identities centered on less visible disabilities. The work was co-developed with students at Colorado Mesa University in Grand Junction, Colorado from questions including: when do you feel invisible? What is the embodiment of unstable identities? What are the complications of disclosure?

Two people facing forward on a dance stage, wearing paperairplanes dresses and life jackets.
Just Wait...
Architectural industrial space with a high diagonal, looking outside from inside, marbles and glass mason jars are on the floor inside a white wooden frame. It feels peaceful and still.
Losing your Marbles: Befriending Forgetting
Dance stage the lighting looks greenish to me, and dancers (about 9) are wearing red tracksuits (I know this....maybe it's not as evident to you) laying on the floor "sleeping" behind them on a black screen it says "But, some days rigor looks different"
Ridiculous Rigor: Past, Present, and Possible
Two people looking into camera, one biting the other arm.  Scrabble pieces below spell "Gluten Free"
The Otherland
Dance studio space with cream walls and floor, in the far back is a window, dancers about 12 are wearing teal shirts, cardigans, and pants. There is a group of dancers in the back of the space lookin at two dancers closer to the camera who are facing each other crouched down, with their hands together.
Hide and Go...
Three characters are behind a set, two facing into the middle are wearing dark clothing and glasses.
Skin
No background.
Series of Invisible Dances...
Single person rocking backwards legs crossed in pool of light.
It feels like I got a Pit stuck in my stomach...got a cup overflowing with T
Hand picking up scrabble piece.
Scrability
Dark lighting of a person facing forward in old style dress.
Spring Awakening the Musical
Looking down from the top at a person sitting, wearing a tulle skirt, purple medical gloves, and with bandages around the chest.
Traces
Dark image overall: there is a projection screen in the background and a person laying on the floor in front of the screen looking up, I barely see the dancer laying in front. On the screen in the back is a magnifying glass centered on a body and a hand and head poking out from the glass.
Magnifying Rigor
