Dear [fname], We would like to share some of our exciting news with you. For the past year State Theta Galleries has been busy preparing for our first Gallery co-production at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe - City Dance Edinburgh - based on Anna Halprin's City Dance (San Francisco in 1977). Taira Restar and Audicia Lynne Morley are both internationally renowned teachers. This 5 day event will include a special film preview of the award winning film Breath Made Visible, a 4-day professional workshop, a 2-day public workshop and the day-long city-wide performance of City Dance Edinburgh. City Dance Edinburgh is a unique opportunity for dancers and artists, as well as complete beginners, to explore Anna Halprin's internationally recognised approach to movement and the creative process. 9th August 6pm to 10 pm The Gillis Centre, Edinburgh This new film by Swiss film maker Ruedi Gerber is based on the life and work of American dance pioneer Anna Halprin. During the film event there will be an experiential workshop introducing Anna Halprin's approach to movement and, we are delighted to say, an opportunity to meet with the film maker in a Q&A session. Bookings: www.citydance-edinburgh.org 11th to 14th August 2011 These performance workshops will include the performance of City Dance as part of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2011.
This workshop will be held at The Gillis Centre and Dance Base. Saturday 13th August 2011 Note: If you are unable to attend a workshop then you can still join in the performance.
