Lift Up 

Artistic Direction and Concept: Davalois Fearon
Choreography: Davalois Fearon with assistance of the dancers
​Music: Mike McGinnis
​Dancers: Davalois Fearon, Mikaela Ware, and Morgan Anderson
Preview Date: August 11, 2017, Wassaic Project's August Festival
Running Time: 15 minutes 

Lift Up grew from Fearon’s Time to Talk graduate thesis and began an inquiry of unpacking the question Why Do I Dance the Way I Dance; which later expanded into the Finding Herstory Project.  Blending abstracted Dancehall and reggae-rooted movement with contemporary dance and improvisation, the ensemble work explores lineage, support, and repair.
