Performing Arts - Chicago, Illinois, United States
Esoteric Dance Project (EDP) is dedicated to the development of the artist, both performer and choreographer, by providing technique-based education in a nurturing and personal environment while offering a platform for exploration of new creativity that cultivates a profound relationship between choreographer, emerging artist, and the audience. By exploring a return to the craft's technical base and employing artists skilled in their discipline, Esoteric Dance Project wants to build from the art form's defined foundations to create original explorations of movement. It is the goal of Esoteric Dance Project to demystify the skilled craft of modern dance and lead audiences to engage, observe and appreciate both the mastery and the freedom that is this art form.Esoteric Dance Project, a collaboration between Chicago husband-and-wife artists Christopher Tucker and Brenna Pierson-Tucker, was established in 2010. Both Artistic Directors, after having met at a private boarding arts high school, have taught, choreographed and performed throughout the Midwest as well as in Maryland, Arizona, Washington and locally since their arrival in Chicago in 2007. Since its inception, EDP has produced 16 new works and has worked with over 50 artists throughout the Chicago area, many of whom are skilled in different art mediums.
