Atlanta according to Lauri Stallings
All those outdoor glo performances add up once you know the troupe's founder is a serious nature lover (and crazy about the Dungeon Family)
Lauri Stallings, founding artist of the Atlanta performance troupe glo, was wrapping up a choreographic residency with the Atlanta Ballet when one of her collaborators, Big Boi of OutKast and Dungeon Family fame, asked what she planned to do next. Her answer was to relocate to our town, launch glo, and proceed to wow audiences all over town — literally. Her dancers have made movement into art inside and outside the High Museum, on the streets of Castleberry Hill, and amid the pillars of Sol LeWitt's cinder block sculpture in Old Fourth Ward, to name just a few places. Funnily enough, Stallings hates to drive but finds plenty of places to walk in this car-centric city.
