Peridance APAP Showcase, Program A.

 

When: Sat., January 5th, 8:30pm & Sun., January 6th, 4:30pm

Where: Peridance, Salvatore Capezio Theater, 126 East 13th Street

Choreographed by Virginie Mécène, UNUM, a trio for 3 men, explores the idea that mankind comes from the same source of energy. UNUM (one in Latin) is a collaboration between Mécène and composer Jacopo Baboni Schilingi that utilizes groundbreaking medical technology to measure the breath. The dancer’s breath is translated into sound as they move through the choreography. Unconsciously, we are One.

Buglisi…works in images that seduce the eye as much as the imagination… a rarity in today’s world…Probably no woman, other than Graham, has plumbed such emotional depths choreographically.
