OK, you know how Forklift Dance's
Allison Orr takes urban infrastructural crews and sports teams and so on, and works their job-related movements into fantastic choreography, and then those actual workers and athletes perform the newly enhanced motions for the public? Remember the stunning
Trash Project and
Power Up! and so on? Well, inspired by the virtuosic movement of symphonic conducting, Orr has
again worked that process with just one person: the
Austin Symphony Orchestra's own
Peter Bay. And, continuing the usual Forklift goodness, the show will be accompanied by live music: An original score by
Graham Reynolds will be played by 13 musicians while
Bay both conducts and embodies movements based abstractly on his conducting gestures.
