New York and Chicago based choreographer Rachel Thorne Germond presents Fours on Tour, an evening of new dance works exploring the possibilities of the number Four, including two new quartets and a solo that explore accumulation structures to find form, flirting with themes of cabaret, evolution, numerology, and animal behavior. The animal-like movements, serious simplicity and repetition of Quartet A is juxtaposed with the slapstick comedy busting out of the seams nature of Quartet B. A solo for the choreographer, Not About Elvis Dance.

Dancers/Performers: Rachel Thorne Germond, Annie Rudnik, Renata Sheppard, Gina T'ai,Jennifer Thompson.
