Christina Gesualdi is originally from Bristol, Pennsylvania. She has been figuring out "the dance thing" in Philadelphia for eight years now. A graduate of The University of the Arts, Christina has performed in the work of Curt Hawoth, Silvana Cardel, Meriam Herve-Gil, and Merian Soto. Christina has recently enjoyed dancing for Zornitsa Stoyanova's Here[begin] Dance Co., PIMA Group, and readySetGO!. She is an Artist in Residence and co-administrator at Mascher Space Co-op and has embraced the space and community as an outlet for much of her work. Her choreography and collaborations with other local dancers has also been shown at The Arbons Art Center in New York, <fidget> space, Plays and Player's Theatre, and Mount Vernon Dance Space. She is a founding member of Pink Hair Affair Dance Collective, a group of friends who have supported and bounced ideas off of each other since college graduation. Through Pink Hair Affair, Christina has had the opportunity to choreograph and perform in numerous works for The Philly Fringe, a site specific work entitled, "In Memory of the Deathtrap", and short cabaret-style works at bars, clubs, and other awesome nooks and crannies of the city. She is currently independently choreographing a piece to premiere in the Spring that peels away at layers of attention. Having studied dance in Germany, New York and North Carolina and tai chi and yoga in Taiwan, Christina is aching to travel some more and fill her creativity, body, and stomach with lovely ideas, images, and delicacies. |
