Cathy Weis Projects will present four Sundays on Broadway events this fall. The evenings will feature new and in-progress works by 15 artists. All events begin at 6pm. WeisAcres is located at 537 Broadway, #3 (between Prince and Spring Streets), in Manhattan. For more information about Sundays on Broadway, visit www.cathyweis.org.

Cathy Weis launched Sundays on Broadway in May 2014. This one-of-a-kind series brings together both luminaries and newcomers of downtown performance, creating a space for artists to perform and discuss their work with audiences in the intimate setting of Weis’s SoHo studio. This season, Weis builds on the intergenerational nature of the series by collaborating with Jade Manns, a younger choreographer, on the curation of the four evenings. Weis and Manns desire for the series to create opportunities for young artists to work alongside more experienced artists, as well as for the experienced artists to gain inspiration from a younger generation. The two hope this approach to curation will also be engaging for audience members, who will get the chance to see artists at very different points in their careers.

Sunday, November 12

Jennifer Monson will present move thing, solo (surfacing layer 1), the result of a monthlong research residency in New Mexico, in sites around uranium mines, the 1945 Trinity atomic bomb test site, and post-industrial urban spaces.

Zeena Parkins, a pioneer of contemporary harp practice, will perform an improvised duet with her decades-long collaborator, Jennifer Monson. Parkins will perform a short solo following their duet.

Isa Spector will present a duet that explores the relationship between gesture and form, object and feeling, and the ineffable amount of time it takes for an image to load.

Deborah Hay will present a 15-minute dance titled fifteen minutes kinda.

Scott Heron will perform excerpts from a new solo work-in-progress.
