Closer Than Skin
Written and Choreographed by Cynthia Oliver
Performed by Cynthia Oliver, Maria Earle, and Leslie Cuyjet.
Music composed by Jason Finkelman with drumming by Gordon Kay and music mixes by various artists.
Premiered at Aaron Davis Hall’s E-Moves Series (E-Stablished)
Closer Than Skin is a collection of saucy movement solos, duets and trios from new works and prior evening length pieces, where Oliver’s signature mix of words sound and the clothes we wear indicate that what separates us is merely a slither of porous penetrable fleshiness.
