Were the defining moments of our lives programmed to be…
Or were they glitches that rewrote the algorithm of our existence?
Premiering at the Koresh David Cooper Black Box Theater, Melissa Rector and Jim Bunting present GLITCH.
GLITCH explores our identities and the defining moments that change us, through a collision of time and memory.
WHY WE'RE SEEKING AID
Melissa and Jim seek to have the ability to give gratuity to their 20 dancers for their months of dedication and commitment to bringing the story of GLITCH to life. In addition to directly supporting dancer compensation, donations will cover essential program expenses such as:
*Flyers
*Programs
*Costumes
*Lighting
THE IMPACT Paying dancers for their time and expertise affirms the value of their work, reduces financial barriers to participation, and establishes the importance of their work in the Philadelphia Dance Community.
