WHAT |
Eugene Lang College The New School for Liberal Arts presents the Lang Spring Dance Performance, featuring original dance works conceived and directed by Lang Dance Faculty Members, Eric Jackson Bradley, Rebecca Stenn, Takehiro Ueyama, Karla Wolfangle and special guest Wally Cardona. The works will be performed by students from the Eugene Lang College Dance Program. Choreographer Wally Cardona is nationally and internationally renowned for his ability to create vast yet intimate landscape works that use the performance setting as an integral partner in making a movement language unique to each piece of choreography. The Group, created in collaboration with twelve Lang students is “a living performing experiment” that came out of the aspiration for making something out of nothing and remaking something from what was just made. |
