7 Hours Difference - Part 1: The Humans
The University of Michigan Advanced Movement Course Presentation
Under the direction of Tzveta Kassabova
7 Hours Difference is a two-part movement piece developed partly in Sofia, Bulgaria and partly in Ann Arbor, Michigan, on campus at The University of Michigan. The piece explores how much one needs to be happy; how much interaction, play, or loneliness is too much? Through an exploration of sense, movement, and speech, the piece seeks to discover what it means to be human.
Undergraduate Theatre & Drama students Amelia Fontaine, Ryland Gigante, Sam Hopkins, Ashley Kramer, Sophia Lane, Ella Lewis, Myles Matthews, CC Meade, James Parascandola, Sophia Santos Ufkes, and Tate Zeleznik have worked alongside professors Tzveta Kassabova and Jason Cianciulli to devise a new version of 7 Hours Difference Part 1: The Humans, the portion originally created in Bulgaria in 2024. The students will present the piece this semester in advance of a European tour this summer of parts 1 and 2 performed in collaboration with students and professors from The New Bulgarian University.
