All Those Kinds of Love

Main Content

My own dear love, he is strong and bold
And he cares not what comes after.
His words ring sweet as a chime of gold,
And his eyes are lit with laughter.
He is jubilant as a flag unfurled—
Oh, a girl, she’d not forget him.
My own dear love, he is all my world,—
And I wish I’d never met him.
– Love Song by Dorothy Parker

About

Created by nonprofit SB Dance, All Those Kinds of Love is part of a mobile concert program called Curbside Theater.

The first Curbside production, this piece began during the 2020 shutdown when Stephen strapped a small stage to a utility trailer and convinced the dancers, Ischa, and Raf to drive around town doing 10 min performances for anyone who made a reservation. We ended up performing over a 100 short shows to 1,500 people, many of whom had not ventured far from home for months, all under conditions of safe social distancing. An extraordinary experience during a divisive, uncertain time, it demonstrated the power of art to connect communities. All Those Kinds of Love evolved into a longer show and its success in reaching new audiences convinced the company to make Curbside its main artistic focus.
