Palisade

Roam
Roam is a glimpse at five wanderers. In a collection of six movements, the audience follows these travelers as they explore one another as well as the environment surrounding them. At times tender and intimate, at others sharp and aggressive, the dancers learn to trust each other and enjoy their company along the way.
Roam premiered on February 6, 2009 at the Merce Cunningham Studio.
Performed by Leonides Arpon, Maureen Damaso, Jessi Patz, Becky Radway, and Meryl Thurston.

Performed by Meghan McCoy, Nicole Durfee, Laura Henry, and Becky Radway.
Original music by Scott Radway.
Postcards
Postcards is a duet designed to unravel a bittersweet romance through lofty partnering and playful interactions between the dancers. The story is told in reverse, culminating in the innocent first meeting of the two characters. An original music score accompanies the dance, written by Philadelphia composer Scott Radway. The choreography itself melds pedestrian gesture with complex partnering to portray this tender relationship.
Postcards premiered in April 2007 at Triskelion Arts in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
Performed by Carlton Ward and Becky Radway.
Original music by Scott Radway.
Build/Run/Speak
Build/Run/Speak is an ensemble piece in three sections, based around the creation of a working machine. It begins by collecting each necessary part, arranging and moving through its regular functions, and ends with the final creative output.
Build/Run/Speak premiered in December 2007 at Triskelion Arts in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
Performed by Nicole Durfee, Meredith Fages, Laura Henry, Kathryn Holmes, Alden LaPaglia, and Amanda Wentworth.
#19
#19 is a quirky duet performed entirely in unison. While the piece is based around the intricate gesture and quick directional changes, it is reminiscent of our youthful days of self-consciousness and general mayhem.
#19 premiered in September 2007 at the Merce Cunningham Studio.
Performed by Meredith Fages and Becky Radway.
Tomorrow
Tomorrow is a dark duet, based on the close relationship we create while pushing through a difficult time together. The title reflects the idea that if we can simply make it to tomorrow, everything will work itself out. The dancers are taking care of one another but also trying to come to terms with their own insecurities.
Tomorrow premiered in December 2003 at One Arm Red in Brooklyn, NY.
Performed by Danica Kalemdaroglu and Becky Radway.
My Eyes Are Closed, But I'm Not Sleeping
My Eyes Are Closed, But I'm Not Sleeping is an investigation into how deeply we rely on the people around us to keep us settled in our own lives. Do we really need those influences to be satisfied and comfortable as individuals? Are we desperately trying to ask someone for help? This group work explores the desire to be self-sufficient and strong, letting go of the things we rely on, but continuing to travel along a shared path in our own way.
My Eyes... premiered in April 2006 at Triskelion Arts in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
Performed by Liza Domnitz, Meghan McCoy, Kate Martel, Alden LaPaglia, and Amy Rance.
Thread
Thread is a movement study with socks. Without a direct story line, it focuses on increasingly frantic movement due to the slippery surface and fast-paced choreography.
Thread premiered in February 2005 at Alvin Ailey's Citigroup Theater.
Performed by Becky Radway.
Remember This Place
Remember This Place opens with the image of a single dancer alone in an expansive space. Throughout the dance, she searched blindly for something, anything at all, that can guide her to security.
Remember This Place premiered in March 2006 at The Stable in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
Performed by Rachel Fachner.
