DAY FOUR!!!!
OGD INTENSIVE 2025
Sweet Briar College

Another amazing day with these incredible artists! Today we spent the morning in a contact improvisation practice followed by partnering rep. It was a beautifully intentional way to connect, take care, and hold one another. The afternoon started with Self-led creative time followed by some small group creation time with designers - the first time we have done this at an Intensive! It was magical to witness!! We closed the night together in the theater exploring a new film process.

The party continues! 🎉 Here’s our DAY TWO Recap Video from OGD INTENSIVE 2025!

We kicked off the day with Morning Tune-In, followed by Contemporary Technique and OGD Rep. The afternoon brought our first Projection Design and Lighting Design labs followed by ‘Dance for Camera’. We completed the day with a film screening.

This week is overflowing with dance, design, and film — and we’re only just getting started. More days of deep diving, boundary pushing, and joyful collaboration ahead. What a thrill to be together on the stunning Sweet Briar campus, pursuing our interdisciplinary practices.

Back in Florida on the set of JONI AND THE WHALE for reshoots—as some wonderful discoveries were made about the opening of the film.

The creative team has returned for a 4 day prep, film, strike scenario with our talented lead @mallory_greisl who plays Joni. Bravo to @whittenberg_creative (Production Designer) and @g.mosier1952 (Asst Production Designer) for so quickly and brilliantly rebuilding Joni’s bedroom.

✨Grateful for our time in Edinburgh!✨

From the stage to the streets, we were moved by the beauty, the history, and the time we had to explore it all together.

For OGD’s first tour to Scotland, we were fortunate to have some days to experience the wonders of Edinburgh and its surrounding areas. We took in castles, fed coos, hiked up Arthur’s Seat, listened to bagpipe players, ate haggis, drank whiskey, went to Loch Lomond National Park, explored numerous museums, and so much more. What a joy it was to further bond as a company and to have some time together outside the theater.

⏰THE COUNTDOWN IS ON⏰ — just under 3 weeks left to register for OGD INTENSIVE 2025. A unique summer intensive where dance, design, and film collide!

✨Registration closes June 10th!✨

For the artists who move between disciplines.
For those who build worlds with motion, light, and lens.
For the seekers of sweat, joy, and rigorous creativity.

JULY 6–13 at Sweet Briar College in Virginia.
Only 25 artists. One unforgettable week.

🙌 DOUBLE HIGH FIVE FOR LEVI 🙌

Jumping on just before midnight to wish the magical Levi a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY! It has been an absolute pleasure to have Levi as part of OGD since the summer of 2023. From new film works to stage works to Summer Intensives to residencies to our first International tour, Levi has been a part of so many joyous company moments these past couple of years, and we can’t wait to see what the next few years bring!✨

Help us in celebrating Levi on their special day! 💖
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEVI!

✨ACDA NATIONALS WERE MAGICAL!✨

Yesterday we had the pleasure of teaching two dance classes for the ACDA National Festival. We started with a Contact Improvisation/Partnering class followed by a OGD Contemporary Technique class. It was an inspiring day spent moving and grooving with so many dynamic, talented, and thoughtful dancers from around the country!

Thank you to @acda_dance for inviting us to be a part of the National Festival and thank you to all the dancers who joined us yesterday! It was amazing to dance with you all! We hope to cross paths again soon!

Looking forward to having Dance Place be one of OGD’s Artistic Homes for the upcoming years. Thank you to Dance Place and everyone in the DC dance community and beyond who have been supportive of our work. We can’t wait to share next steps.

✨Join us in wishing the HAPPIEST OF BIRTHDAYS to one and only SHANICE MASON today!✨

Shanice has been part of the OGD family since spring 2019, and over the years she’s brought her brilliant artistry and spirit to so many of our works—on stage, outdoors, 6 feet apart during COVID, and most recently as part of our first international tour to Edinburgh.

She’s a joy to collaborate with and an incredible human all around. We’re lucky to know her, and even luckier to work with her.

Swipe through for moments from performances, rehearsals, residencies, and pure enjoyment—we couldn’t choose just a few. Happy Birthday, Shanice!🎂

#HappyBirthday #happybirthdayshanice

As we fly out today from Edinburgh back home, we are filled with immense gratitude for this incredible experience and opportunity to share our work @uoe_efi (Edinburgh Futures Institute). More images, videos, and reflections to come.✨
