Dagmar Spain/Dance Imprints’s artistic work is created in the spirit of “repair” and connectivity, often intertwined with original writing (poetry, monologues, and playwriting) and developed into dance – works. Dance Imprints wants to bring forth artistic works that have a lasting effect on each participating artist/collaborator and audience. The work has been presented in the US, Canada, Germany, the Czech Republic, Switzerland, France, Bulgaria and Japan.

 

 

“What she (Dagmar Spain) has is a keen sense of the variety of human experience and the conviction that it lies at the heart of work for the stage.”– Toby Tobias, Village Voice

 

CHOREOGRAPHY by Dagmar Spain with the pre-professional students (5-month dance program) at DanceWorks, Berlin, Germany (January 31, 2024). Each student developed a “somatic” dance narrative (SDN) based on their entry point to dance. Each individual dance style was encouraged, accumulating into a group choreography.
