RE/33: 33 Fainting Spells Revisited, Installment One


From 1994 - 2006, Dayna Hanson and Gaelen Hanson’s touring dance theater company, 33 Fainting Spells, helped draw national attention to Seattle dance. RE/33: 33 Fainting Spells Revisited examines the company’s impact by restaging and digitally distributing its works. Installment One: The Uninvited will be presented at Base Oct. 26-27, 2018 as part of Base co-founder Dayna Hanson’s Base Artist Residency.

In Installment One of RE/33, Dayna Hanson Company dancers Madison Haines and Julia Sloane re-perform excerpts from 33 Fainting Spells’ debut evening-length work, The Uninvited. The evening will also include a  talk with Dayna Hanson and former 33 Fainting Spells company member, Peggy Piacenza, along with artifacts, digital content—including  downloadable video of the original work—and a limited edition catalogue. An open rehearsal, free to the public, took place at Base Monday, Sept. 24, 5 - 7p, and a master class will be held Saturday, Oct. 27 at Base.

Fri. - Sat., Oct. 26 - 27, 8p
