Carl Flink was a dancer in Minneapolis and New York before he became a lawyer. He has since straddled both lines, in a sense, infusing the dances he makes with themes of social justice. Field Songs is the newest work he’s put on his Black Label Movement, on stage May 29 through June 7 at the Southern Theater. 3-Minute Egg dropped into the Barbara Barker Center to catch a rehearsal and speak with Flink, who now also chairs the dance and theater program at the University of Minnesota. Live music for this piece comes from the Jinnies.
Got something to say? Go for it!
Thank you, Matt. This is really wonderful.
