"the Series For (For One / For Two) opened with Ellie Sandstrom demonstrating how you own a stage (when works are coming fast and furious, as they can during a festival, it’s notable when an artist stamps their own sense of time), before moving on to a shadow-backed ensemble with Hannah Crowley" - Michael van Baker/the SunBreak

SANDSTROMMOVEMENT returned to the studios of historic Washington Hall in the Central District.
Artistic Director Ellie Sandstrom continues to build new work.
Following the interference from within in order to influence the behavior of expression, the Series For examines the balance of nurturing and being nurtured. This work highlights the technical precision and range of the performers and the memorably haunting audio of musician, Chad Beieler. This work will be shown in excerpts throughout the 2011-2012 performance season and will become an evening length work as it grows.
For One, a solo for the artistic director, was most recently performed at the Velocity Dance Center Fall Kick Off and will make an edited and extended appearance in February 2012. For Two, the new extension in the series, brings together the direct force of dancers Ellie Sandstrom and Hannah Crowley, who find their connection through initial impulse, in a powerfully paired duet of balance and innate reactions.
