DANCE

HIJACK and Scott Heron met up in Russia, bought some blackmarket high heels and made a dance called “3 Minutes of Pork and Shoving” in 2002. After six years and many trips up and down the Mississippi River they have a body of collaborative work and a love of putting their independent work next to each other.

Their shared show at PS122 inspired New York Times critic Claudia La Rocco to write: “it was one of the most enjoyable, language-defying performances I’ve seen in a long time”.

HIJACK is the Minneapolis-based choreographic collaboration of Kristin Van Loon & Arwen Wilder. The duo has taught and performed in Japan, Russia, Central America, Ottawa, Chicago, Colorado, New Orleans, Seattle, San Francisco, New York, Maine, and Austin,TX (FUSE BOX 2007).

Scott Heron’s solo and group work has been presented in Dance Theatre Workshop, The Kitchen, Movement Research at Judson Church, Dixon Place and PS 122. He received a 2003 New York Dance and Theater “Bessie” Award for his body of work as a performer.
