My friend, Pilates teacher, and co-circus performer recently came to a few of us proposing that we put a little stilt act together for an upcoming show. Missing the circus and our summer of creative expression and being in amazing shape we all agreed! Then came the details, how would we choreograph a piece that fit with the show's theme, shadows? What are we called, we need costumes... oh and of course stilts! Our small Albuquerque stilt troupe would be called "present Company" which ended up suiting us really well considering that between the two performances and throughout the whole process our group fluctuated between 3-5 people. I performed this piece with; Jessie Rogers, Colleen Cummins, and Jenny Hipsher. Sarah Wright did our costumes. The performance was done for both the gallery opening and closing. Shadows - a performative exhibition curated by Joyce Neimanas. October 15 - November 12 Building the stilts ended up taking up most of the time we thought we'd be coming up with choreography and practicing.
