An exclusive invitation from our friends at Garth Fagan Dance
Two World Premieres at The Joyce Theatre
Tuesday through Sunday, October 5 - 9
Garth Fagan Dance invites friends of Evidence Dance to join them as the company caps off its 40th Anniversary celebration at
The Joyce this week. Internationally-acclaimed as founder of one of America's longest-established modern dance companies - and as the Tony Award-winning choreographer of the Broadway hit The Lion King - Garth is known for his singular style, a fusion of modern, ballet and Afro-Caribbean dance. The Joyce season boasts two World Premieres: Madiba, which Garth describes as "a love song to Nelson Mandela," paying homage to the South African leader's indomitable life force (Madiba is Mandela's Xhosa clan name); and Liminal Flux, choreographed by long-time company member Norwood Pennewell, with music by Miles Davis and Chancha Via Circuito. Also on view are revivals of some of Garth's greatest dances.
Garth Fagan Dance at The Joyce Theater, October 5-9 Wednesday, 7:30pm; Thursday-Friday, 8pm; Saturday, 2pm and 8pm; Sunday, 2pm and 7:30pm. Tickets, $10-$59.
