| Description: | Co-directed by Allyson Green and Margaret C. Marshall, New Directions – Choreographers’ Showcase features new works by MFA Dance Theatre students, Alicia Peterson Baskel and Rebecca Salzer with new works from top undergraduate choreographers, Trixi Anne Agiao, Katie Lorge, and Morgan McGreevey. Enter a disturbing world of memory inhabited by two actors and two dancers in Harold Pinter’s “Night.” Explore cycles of turbulent mood changes in a game that integrates dance, saxophone, and video images. Experience motions and sounds inspired by fireflies; a powerful investigation into the suppression of women in society; and haunting gestures by a soloist framed within a birdcage. These new and innovative approaches in dance theatre will be unveiled in New Directions, featuring outstanding performances by actors, dancers, video artists and musicians. Do not miss these exciting new artists as they begin to redefine the boundaries of dance theatre at UC San Diego. Visit the New Directions Web-page at: http://theatre.ucsd.edu/season/springworks |
