Postponement of the Premier of Breathing at the Boundaries.
In light of the recent rise of COVID-19 cases across the nation and here in the San Francisco Bay Area, MJDC, in conversation with all the artists, has decided to take a brief pause on rehearsing Breathing at the Boundaries to remain committed to the health and safety of all involved. We remain eager to get back to work on our collective vision and excited for you to see what we are building!
We anticipate sharing Breathing at the Boundaries before the end of 2020, and will keep you updated about our new timeline as it unfolds.

Margaret Jenkins and Rinde Eckert first collaborated in 1987 and have created new works together dozens of times since then. Don’t miss this upcoming live/virtual/streamed/film creation, the latest in their collaboration

This is an unprecedented time, yet here we are. At once confined in place yet hurtling towards an unknowable future, awaiting embrace!
This new filmic/live streaming event – with dancers isolated and in touch, present and remote – together we are sharing the moment, if not the room. Here we are in the stream, live streaming, living form within the limits imposed by the moment.
Music is filling the air, words fly up and out along with limbs and hands, movement is everywhere. Live music by Paul Dresher and Joel Davel, image-construct and visuals by Alexander V. Nichols, words by Rinde Eckert (appearing live) and Michael Palmer, movement by the MJDC dancer/collaborators. All breathing at the boundaries, even if not always together.
Buying options: Free but requires RSVP. Donations encouraged.
Breathing at the Boundaries is made possible thanks to the generous support of The Bernard Osher Foundation.
