MakeShift is a forty-minute collaborative performance piece that uses modern dance, video footage from a 2008 site-specific improvisation on the docks of a Vermont lake, and improvised live sound. The work is an attempt to explore and recreate a rural environment inside an urban one. By staging the p­erformance throughout the space, Segar and Tenenbaum will ask the audience to consider how shifting landscapes affect the body. The performance is followed by a Q&A and reception. ­
