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.

Friday, January 30
7:30 Jin Ju Song-Begin
9:00 CatScratch Theatre

NEVEREND | U.S. Premiere
Jin Ju Song-Begin
Korean-born Jin Ju-Begin has created a dance for eight that explores the journey from birth to death through a musical mediation on the four seasons. Stemming from a Buddhist upbringing honoring re-incarnation, this work reflects on life and the delicacy of its existence even after the cycle completes itself and only memories remain.

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.
