present/tense is a dance/word laboratory designed to expose its audience to the powerful union between verbal and nonverbal meaning. It acts as a meeting place for writers to read short pieces of their work while dancers receive the impetus to respond to sound, intent and personal meaning.

The project supports a collaborative process between improvised dance and the written word, involving resident published writers and professional modern dancers.
