For the first time in their twelve year collaboration, Off-Leash Area

Co-Artistic Directors Jennifer Ilse and Paul Herwig are presenting six independently created

short works of dance and performance.

Their proposed challenge is to create a solo work, a collaboration

with someone they've never worked with before,

and direct a group piece that they do not perform in. (the Audition is for the two group pieces.)
