Studio’s ongoing series for works-in-progress, live showings, and performances. It’s a space for experimentation—a meeting ground for dancers, choreographers, musicians, and artists to share spontaneous creativity and raw artistic exchange.
On April 25, Here & There will spotlight the legacy of jazz with a powerful collaboration led by Spectral Forces: Julius Masri on drums, Pete Dennis on bass, Alex Smith on poetry and synthesizers. Their sound is a bright collision of jazz, post-punk, and queer Afro-Futurism—reclaiming and reshaping genres into something electric and new.
This fully improvised set becomes a living score for Cardell Dance guest dancers, who will respond instinctively in real-time—embodying the rhythm, freedom, and deep roots of jazz improvisation.
Whether you love jazz, dance, or live experimentation, this is one night not to miss

Led by Chloe Marie & Tamar Gutherz. Open to movers of all levels.
During this immersive experience, participants will explore how the body is a source of connection and energy. Using the space and each other for support and inspiration, we will explore the idea of “networking” through movement.
The evening will begin with a guided warm-up, followed by an Open Improvisation Jam. It will unfold and conclude with a Round Robin, creating space for solos, duets, and group improvisational performances to naturally emerge.
