With equal parts sincerity and spectacle, Halie Bahr (she/hers) creates wildly vivid and visceral dances that feel like puzzles. On Sunday, she will revisit Baby Pink, an ever-changing solo built on bodily trust and belief in her changing body. Come watch her as she sorts through violent memories that flood and fade with this sweet yet strident performance. Halie is an Assistant Professor of Dance at Southern Utah University where she researches trauma and play as an embodied, socio-political, creative practice. Halie holds her MFA from the University of Utah School of Dance, BFA from the University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee, and is a Certified Laban/Bartenieff Movement Analyst (CLMA). www.haliebahr.org
