Location: Henry J. Leir Stage
The outdoor Henry J. Leir Stage hosts Annie Hanauer for a special one-day-only performance on July 18. This will be the first U.S. presentation by Hanauer, an American-born artist now based in London and touring internationally. She is passionate about building inclusive and accessible artistic practices, and wants to joyfully disrupt assumptions of what a dancing body is. She is interested in the power, wisdom, creativity, and resilience of people who have been ‘othered’, stemming from her own lived experience as a disabled person. Her work relies on curiosity, presence, deep connection, and full-bodied dancing, and has often played with the contrast between the body’s power to hold that which is felt, and the concreteness of language.
INCLEMENT WEATHER: Jacob’s Pillow occasionally must issue a day-of cancellation of an outdoor performance due to inclement weather, such as current or impending rain, high heat, or air quality concerns. In the event of inclement weather on the date of your outdoor performance by Annie Hanauer, all ticket holders will be notified and those who have purchased a “Rain or Shine” ticket will be accommodated indoors in an alternate venue with limited capacity at Jacob’s Pillow, at the scheduled showtime. All other ticket holders who purchased a “Shine Only” ticket will have their funds moved on-account at that time.
