W-I-P (Works-In-Progress/Wednesdays-In-Performance) is a long-running collaboration with Jump-Start Performance Co. We are a monthly lab space for new, in-progress dance and other movement-based performance works. Artists and audience members participate in a facilitated post-performance discussion based on Liz Lerman's Critical Response Process. W-I-P is known for its eclecticism: modern dancers, belly dancers and performance artists have performed in the same evening and been inspired by each other, as well as expanding the audience's perception of performance.
