Waters Rising
choreography by dance ceres
& Zell Dance with live music by rickshaw caravan with guest Weber dance featuring author/adventurer, jon turk
Friday & Saturday March 9-10, 8pm
Sunday March 11, 5pm
Tickets: $18 at the door/$15 pre-sale, students or seniors
Available at www.brownpapertickets.com or by calling (415) 273-4633
Please join local choreographers Rebecca Rozell of Zell Dance and Brittany Brown Ceres of dance ceres in partnership with Boston based choreographer, Jody
Weber of Weber Dance for a fluid and provocative evening of new and recent work.
In Columbia Chasing (2010), dance ceres studies the river as
it devours ravenously. It nurtures, but it does not care. It knows nothing of judgment or difference, but simply exists in the thoroughness of movement. dance
ceres embraces the endlessness because there is no mechanism for stopping, and through the rush, celebrates the things that profoundly surprise humans. The
body knows when it is finished grieving. It becomes lighter. It flows again. "Wash out the human in me and let me be like the river." Columbia Chasing was
developed through the AIR program at the Garage and a commission from Stanford University's Dance Department.
A Triplet Tale by Zell Dance
takes the audience on a whimsical journey through movement, music and myth. With a combination of jazz, swing, ballet and humor, the audience follows a pair of
misfits on their quest to uncover the legend of The Triplets and bring them back to dance again. A Triplet Tale, inspired by the music from "The
Triplets of Belleville", has been described as complex, funny and engaging.
Synchronicity & the Sacred Space by Weber Dance probes the strange
landscape where scientific thought encounters the unknown, and human perception and reality are fluid partners in an enigmatic dance. The piece incorporates
the work of Jon Turk, a storyteller and adventurer who writes nonfiction about his expeditions by kayak. Nominated as one of the top ten explorer's of the year
by National Geographic, Jon's story telling shares a provocative tale of both the tragedy of deep cultural loss and the beauty of alternative ways of
perceiving/living in the world.
Performances by Joseph Copley, Cari Delaplane, Mayuko Hosoai, Claudia Hubiak, Shannon Humphreys, Kristina Kirshner,
Kristy Kuhn, Rebecca Lay, Miranda Mallard, Becca Rozell, Kate Vigmostad, & Christi Welter With live music by Rickshaw Caravan And storytelling by Jon Turk For
