A note from the director:
Acts of Matter is more than a performance group. It is an ideology. A belief in the ability of movement to move people—to stir in them something innately human: the need to find connection. Acts of Matter was founded out of a desire to bring a collective of artists together to make work that fosters connection: between artists and audiences, between the subconscious and the conscious parts of our selves. It has grown to be a research platform on stage and off where artists can foster deep listening and connect with other curious movers and thinkers. After over a decade of work together, I am humbled by what we’ve created. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of our collective evolution.
Rebecca Lemme, Founder + Artistic Director
I believe now more than ever in the power of art. of movement. of creative collaboration. of the community we build through these endeavors.
The company's name acknowledges the inherent capacity of the body, of matter, to express deep truths of our lived experience, truths that matter deeply to our collective humanity.
Our mission is rooted in the knowledge that we are better together. Our creative work focuses on collaborative process and our workshops and training programs are centered in community learning and collective understanding.
Running a small dance company is a huge undertaking. Financial contributions support everyone who is a part of our creative and educational processes, including creative scholarship and work study opportunities for young artists. Thank you for considering supporting us this season.
