Dan Merlo
The Seldoms
"The Seldoms make contemporary dance that translates inquiry into
movement and amplifies its impact through collaboration with image,
sound, text and location, providing an avenue for audiences to
experience relevant and engaging dance. We are a Chicago based
dance performance company that values making intelligent, visual
dance theater driven by inquiry. We ground our inquiry in the history
of ideas, art history, and our personal experience to find complex and
faceted ways to describe the nature of our question."
"The center of our work is dance, however, our vision extends to the
whole of action and environment on stage."
