Alyson Dolan + Drew Silverman, composer
Alyson Dolan
Alyson Dolan has been recognized by The Austin Chronicle as a “key modern mover” for the “stamina, concentration, and big jar of real that she brings to the potluck.” Her approach to making dances is motivated by a desire for attunement in the choreographic process and authenticity in performance. Alyson is in her tenth season with Kathy Dunn Hamrick Dance Company, is an original member of the Austin Soundpainting Collective directed by Andrea Ariel, and regularly presents her own work in Austin and with Sarasota Contemporary Dance in Florida. She also offers private lessons and choreographic coaching to movers at various stages of their dance journeys and is on faculty at Cafe Dance and St. Edward’s University.

Drew Silverman
Critically acclaimed composer, producer and interdisciplinary artist Drew Silverman creates music, sound design and visual productions, frequently presenting work with the dance community. Silverman is most inspired by how sounds and textures found in nature can merge sympathetically with sounds and textures made by machines.
