ArtsMemphis is hosting a fundraiser dinner at Earnestine & Hazel’s tonight (Monday, Sept 30). The event has been sold out for some time but I wanted to share a bit of rehearsal footage from a new site-specific piece developed by a trio of choreographers from Project:Motion that’s on tonight’s program.
Louisa Koeppel, Emily Hefley, and Rebecca Cochran have been collaborating on an homage to E&H’s celebrated Soul Burger.
In the video you’ll see dancers who are still working out the kinks, and my fingers play a brief cameo role (still learning how to shoot with the iPad) but I thought dance enthusiasts, Memphis boosters, and burger lovers, as well as friends and fans of the bar’s recently deceased owner Russell George might like to share in this sweet tribute to a Memphis classic.
