"RescYou"

Company:
Eckert + SorensenJolink

Carlye Eckert and John SorensenJolink, artists in residence at Judson Memorial Church, premiere their collaboration "RescYou," which centers around the relationship of two friends before and after a disaster that leaves them stranded on an emergency life raft.   The couple will transform the historic sanctuary into a vast ocean in which time, memories and daily life cease to exist.   Lifelong friends hailing from Portland, Oregon, Eckert and SorensenJolink have danced in NY for the past decade.   John's credits include Twyla Tharp's Broadway shows "Movin' Out" and "Come Fly Away," as well as appearances with the companies of Doug Elkins and John Jasperse, and the recent BAM "Einstein on the Beach" production choreographed by Lucinda Childs.   Carlye's recent credits include appearances with the companies of Jonah Bokaer, Tino Sehgal, Jack Ferver, Larry Keigwin, and at the Dublin Fringe Festival.    4 performances, January 17-19 at Judson Memorial Church, 55 Washington Square South.
