Excited to share this snippet of the creation for the @thebridge.movement
“I Still Don’t Know”
“I Still Don’t Know” is a dystopian dance-theatre work investigating the “Attention Economy” and our obsession with accumulation. Set in a landscape of physical and digital debris—Amazon boxes and discarded personas—the piece interrogates how we inhabit bubbles of vanity while the world burns. Working with 10 collaborators, I employ radical play to explore the over-saturation of information. We juxtapose primal movement against the performative veneers of social media and competition culture, eventually shedding these distractions to find authentic connection. Using voice, movement, and a “trash is fierce” theatricality, the work pushes toward physical exhaustion as a site of truth.

Heather Lang’s classes are an extension of her creative process and values. It's about playing, experimenting and what she refers to as a "down to clown groovey exploratorium". She leads a warm-up inspired by PT, body conditioning, house, Zumba, jazz, and modern. She incorporates improv/dance composition tasks and teaches a phrase that pulls from many styles. She is collaborative and creates an environment for artist to take risks. Heather believes in the community, the healing, the embodiment, and the ever-knowing power of dance.
