Draves says the work, developed over nearly of a year of research, rehearsals, and showings, “manifests from a process situated in the banal, the bizarre, and the beautiful of everyday experiences.” Draves’ creative process is discussed in a preview article by Chicago dance critic Lauren Warnecke, posted May 21 on See Chicago Dance.
