The Cowles Center for Dance & the Performing Arts and the McKnight Fellowships for Dancers’ biannual showcase event, SOLO, pairs six Minnesota dancers with renowned local, national, and international choreographers. An encore viewing of the films will take place at Silverwood Park on Thursday, May 26, 2022, at 8:15 PM. This outdoor showing is free and open to the public and will take place outdoors as a movie in the park. Audiences are encouraged to bring a chair or blanket for seating. SOLO will have Spanish and English captioning throughout the films.
The six dancers being showcased are Renée Copeland, Yeniel “Chini” Perez Domenech, Sharon Mansur, Erin Thompson, Joseph “MN Joe” Tran, and Elayna Waxse. Each are recipients of a McKnight Dancer Fellowship, an annual award given to three mid-career Minnesota dancers whose work demonstrates artistic excellence. The 2021 collaborations range from innovative Hip Hop to contemporary Arab imaginings, to intimate site-specific explorations and more.
