The following description was submitted by the event organizer.

Seattle-based Elby Brosch and Portland’s Allie Hankins share an evening of compelling dance performance.

Invisible Touch by Allie Hankins is a performance that centers deconstruction as a means of meaning-making. It takes many comb-throughs, and admitting things are tangled, but that's all. 

In Drama Tops, This is for you a trans masculine dancer/choreographer Elby Brosch, tells his story through duets with a cis man, Shane Donohue. Toxic masculinity is splayed open and gutted using queer humor. The potential beauty of masculinity is revealed through tenderness and empathy. Past, present, and future are woven together with strands of memory and longing. Identity is embodied through relationships between parts of a whole.

Alembic Co-Production with Allie Hankins and Elby Brosch. New dance and new performance.
