Description
Internationally acclaimed dancer/choreographer John Jasperse presents an exhilarating new evening-length work for five dancers, with an original score performed live on stage by multi-instrumentalist (and Mills College faculty member) Zeena Parkins. Praised for his savvy integration of design and performance, and intrigued by such topics as money, our capitalist society and environmental waste, Jasperse assigned himself a production budget of zero, creating a stunning set made completely of recycled materials; a performance environment where performers riff on the theme of ownership and … stuff. Misuse liable to prosecution promises to be a provocative and entertaining evening from a tireless dance originator.
