Description: Global Underscore (GUS)
The Underscore, a long-form dance improvisation structure created by Nancy Stark Smith, incorporates Contact Improvisation (CI) into the broader arena of improvisational dance practice. GUS centers around a yearly event in which the Underscore is practiced simultaneously for a 4-hour period by people all over the world near the summer solstice (northern hemisphere).
This year's GUS Sg site is facilitated by Sze and Daphne.
All are welcome, but you must be familiar with the Underscore practice to participate - please see options in the registration form below. Please contact us if you have any access needs. This venue does not have step-free access but we are happy to assist.
