Now an annual event at Irondale, Flicfest is a Festival of Feature-length Independent Choreography. Each evening of FLICfest will include two feature-length dance theater works followed by a performance cabaret in the balcony lounge.

FLIC aims to bring great performance to a new audience as well as create a strong sense of community and a forum for the exchange of ideas among independent choreographers.

The Architecture of Proximity | World Premiere
John J Zullo/Raw Movement
Movement architect John J Zullo combines elements of modern dance, vogueing, gestural and impulse generated movement in The Architecture of Proximity. This immersive performance experience explores the relationship between the architecture of spaces and the physical, psychological and emotional effects on the body. What happens when more bodies are introduced into a smaller and smaller space? The work navigates between spectator and performer as borders are created, established and erased.

Kiri no Jikan (In the in Between) | World Premiere
Kaoru Ikeda and Jeramy Zimmerman/CatScratch Theatre
In Kiri no Jikan, two women struggle for harmony and search for stability in an ever-changing landscape. Separated at first by time and geography, the women find support and common ground in and among hundreds of pounds of rice. Combining minimalist formality and improvisational structure, CatScratch Theatre creates a world that allows each viewer to experience the work uniquely.
