Workshop

1:30-5:30 pm

1:00pm registration

Location: Cleveland Dance Project, Cleveland, OH

June 28

In this workshop we’ll explore what it means to offer and explore your individual “Mojo” in class and creation. The first portion of the workshop will include a guided free-flow contemporary barre to build trust, connection, and awareness between you, your partner (the barre), and your kinesphere. The second portion of the workshop we’ll deepen our understanding of those concepts as we apply them to center contemporary exercises, partners, and improvisation. The third portion of the workshop will explore developing choreography. We’ll apply proximity, connection, play, and storytelling to discover individual creative agency through choice making. 

This workshop is a Celebration, Community Laboratory, and fundraiser for the re-titled and reimagined mission of MoJo Co.Lab led by Choreographer and Director Morgan Joanne Grube. 

Cost: $40

TOUCHED BY GHOSTS by Morgan Joanne Grube presented by CDCFest as part of CDCFest’s 2025 Festival in Orlando, FL.

TOUCHED BY GHOSTS is an exploration of selfhood through multiple realties. For the audience and performers, visions of selfhood from alternate realities distort what may or may not be real. Through collaboration with the dancers this work embraces the ebb and flow of how we wear and shed time while also asking ourselves, what if I had taken a different path?

Joining the process and performing are collaborators and dancers, Annette Ellis and DeMarco Sleeper along with the auditioned cast at CDCFest.

Solo performance of INSIDENESS by Morgan Joanne Grube at DCF’s Choreographer Showcase

WHERE I END AND YOU BEGIN by Morgan Joanne Grube at CDF 2025

Inspired by the “Cleveland Venus” statue staged outside of the Carl B. Stokes Federal Court House in Cleveland, OH, WHERE I END AND YOU BEGIN was propelled by the Supreme Court’s decision to overrule Roe V. Wade and the renewed battle for people’s healthcare, privacy, and rights. “Where I End, and You Begin” is a scream without voice, a wound without gauze, a ghost full of grief, a need with no exceptions, and an exploration of how a contorted narrative oppresses those who don’t fit within it.

Performing artists: Kylie Karam, Emilyann Dustman, Samantha Fox, Trinity Stevens, Jade Holloway, Angelina DiFranco (vocalist)
