Event Details

Lauren Putty White, 2025 Glen Foerd Performing Artist in Residence, brings an untold story of longing, exhaustion, diligence and joy to life with original choreography set to a live score straight from the Jazz Age. “Dream Etched in a Memory” tells the story of the mansion’s butler, Arthur Laws. Mr. Laws worked hard tending to a mansion that could never be his while his wife Mary raised their children in a home he rarely saw. Lauren Putty White and Joe Gonzalez interweave choreography and improvised movement to imagine the daydreams of Mr. and Mrs. Laws as they lived and worked along the edges of extravagant wealth, looking in. The score played by pianist Adam Faulk features Jazz Age tunes from Glen Foerd’s musical collection. Audience members are encouraged to respond to and inquire about the work during a Q&A following each performance. The performances are free to attend. Advanced registration is required.
