ARTISTIC FEATS A critically acclaimed, multidisciplinary dance theatre work, Flight Distance, received its world premiere at MoMing Dance & Arts Center and was co-produced by Hedwig Dances and Fluid Measure Performance Company. Co-directed by Jan Bartoszek (choreographer) and Patricia Pelletier (script writer), with lighting design by Ken Bowen, costume design by Kris Cahill, and the “rich, cacophonous music for voices and instruments, by Michael Zerang, and the 32 detailed papier mache sculptures, by Don Seiden, add resonance and dimension to the work” Richard Christiansen, Chicago Tribune.
“A remarkable evening of dance, theater, music and art…Bartoszek’s choreography casts a surrealistic aura. The dancers often appeared as dream figures, arriving and disappearing as easily as the bizarre creatures we accept so readily in our dreams.” – Wynne Delacoma, Chicago Sun-Times
