Back in May 2009, Megan Sprenger and her mvworks company presented …WITHIN US. at P.S. 122, a show that we called “a brilliant evening-length piece of confrontational dance theater that gets right in the audience’s face — literally.” Sprenger will be at the 92nd St. Y on February 11 as part of the Harkness Dance Center’s free Fridays at Noon series, discussing the ever-present question “Am I too close?” with fellow choreographers Sarah Maxfield, who runs the web-based performance relay One-Shot, and Yanira Castro, whose latest project is called a canary torsi. The trio will offer sneak peeks at works-in-progress, including Sprenger’s HOLD MY HAND, and will also participate in a Q&A with the audience, with whom they cannot promise that they won’t get too close.
