"Remember this moment"
"Ms. Christa has a way of making dance and theater happen without seeming to lift a finger"
- Jennifer Dunning_ The New York Times
In anticipation of their two year-old child's fiftieth birthday, two older parents create a digital video - part time capsule, part time travel - and fill it with love and living memories, as a gift for their child to open in the future.
Award-winning choreographers and performers Gabri Christa and Niles Ford have collaborated and danced together for the last 15 years. This multi-media performance incorporates moments from their past and integrates lots of new. Through dance, spoken and sung text, the performers inhabit a vivid and visceral world conjured by video artist and Obie Award winner Marilys Ernst and filled with live music by Greg Tate's of the neo-tribal big band Burnt Sugar (The Arkestra Chamber).
"Remember this moment" was made possible by a grant from the Jerome Foundation and a residency at MassMOca
Of their dancing together Deborah Jowitt of the Village Voice said
"Christa and Ford perform two duets—her catlike coiled softness a to-die-for contrast to his big, warm, loose strength"
