A guided, performative event, Dreams of the Other Side unfolded in the woods, marshes, and on a lake surrounding the audience during the height of fall foliage season. As the audience was led around the lake, eight dancers moved slowly to the music of Georgy Sviridov that was performed live by over twenty singers. Vocalists in cascading dresses sang from a dock, a small island, and on an old rowboat that moved in rhythm with the audience, offering a multi-sensory experience.
Created by Marketa Fantova and D. Chase Angier in collaboration with the Alfred University site specific performance and design students, Luanne Crosby as a soloist, and the Alfred Chamber Singers directed by Luanne Crosby.
