Veteran Director/Choreographer/Media Artist Stephan Koplowitz is producingThe Northfield Experience,a site-specific, immersive performance event in May 2018 using the town of Northfield, MN as its canvas and subject matter. Comprised of a series of inter-laced performances of theater, dance, visual installations, and digital media, this performance event will be inspired by the history, architecture, and unique community of Northfield. Koplowitz is excited to work and collaborate with St. Olaf and Carleton Colleges and the greater Northfield community where the spirit of history, industry, and scholarship still thrive. The Northfield Experience will engage students, alumni, professors and Curriculum from both colleges, in addition to members of specific Northfield institutions and businesses. It aims not only to create a unique artistic experience, but to bring together several academic and public communities united towards the development and creation of this work. An intended outcome is that all involved parties will be more closely aligned and acquainted following this shared collaboration.
This is a progressive venue production. Most locations are within walking distance, but an ADA bus is available upon request.
The production begins at The Grand Event Center, 316 Washington Street, Northfield, MN.
Carleton and St. Olaf students may attend the 6pm Thursday night dress rehearsal for free with student id.
