DocuSign Envelope ID: CF9707BC- FFD4- 45E5- 95CC- 7874563F6EOE <br />Artist Experience As a dance professor and choreographer for the past 15 years, <br />have had the opportunity to contribute to many campus productions <br />in dance and theater. In 2015, 1 curated a dance performance by <br />students for the Process Series that was an extension of the Martha <br />Graham Company's Lamentation Variations global initiative (see <br />attached press release). I guided students in the creation of their own <br />responses to the embodiment of grief and produced an evening of <br />dance in Gerrard Hall that was extremely moving and well attended — <br />most notably, Chancellor Folt was in attendance and praised the <br />performance during the talk back section. More recently, I have <br />worked with the Kenan Theater Company in the Department of <br />Dramatic Arts to create two original evening length dance drama <br />pieces. These pieces have introduced student performers and <br />audiences to a new form of theater — one that is more abstract than a <br />traditional theater piece and more narrative based than a traditional <br />dance piece. The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. The <br />performers in my pieces are offered an opportunity to have a voice <br />on stage through movement and text while audience members are <br />able to read multiple meanings into complex characters and <br />juxtapositions. These pieces are thought provoking and timely. <br />Securing funding through this grant would allow me the time I need to <br />take even greater creative risks and work with professionals who <br />support my vision. <br />Budgeted Expense <br />Budgeted Income <br />Resumes of artists /administrators <br />currentCV- HeatherTatreau.pdf <br />Publicity Samples <br />Lamentations _PR.pdf <br />Rooms_Program.pdf <br />KTC—Da nce—Drama_Prog ram. pdf <br />Work Samples <br />You—tube—link—for ROOMS_video.pdf <br />Video Sample: <br />External Link <br />Letters of support (optional) <br />Tatreau_Support_Letter.doc <br />
