As part of my “off-line” investigations, I curate a performance-development series called “THROW” at The Chocolate Factory Theater in Long Island City. THROW returns from its summer hiatus on Tuesday, September 15th with works-in-progress by Maura Donohue, Benjamin Rasmussen, and Jessica Ray.
Designed to provide artists and audiences with a platform for testing ideas-in-progress THROW has been going strong since 2006. But, as LeVar Burton would say, you don’t have to take my word for it:
“Going to THROW is a bit like participating in a brand-new art form, one in which the co-creation is not only between the choreographer and performers, but also with an actively engaged audience.”
-Martha Sherman, Audience Member
“Dialogue! Process! Participating in THROW reminded me that this is where the joy is in art-making.”
- Rebecca Davis, Artist
