The legendary Jose Limon Dance company brings its' celebrated Centinenial tour to the NEW LATC. Come see this Dance Magazine Award winning show that incorporates literary sources ranging from Shakespeare to Frederico Garcia Lorca.
Lament for Ignacio Sanchez Mejias
Choreographed by Doris Humphrey as part of the debut concert of the Limon Dance Company. Its inspiration draws from the famous poem of the same name by Lorca. Humphrey was one of the first choreographers to pioneer using the spoken word as part of the fabric of her creations and this piece, as the culmination of her efforts in this direction is a landmark masterwork which combines theater, dance, and music. Created at the end of World War II, she saw this dance as more than just a theatrical work. Lament was "...intended to signify the struggle of all men of courage who contend in the ring of life and who meet a tragic end."
The Moor's Pavane
Winner of the Dance Magazine Award for outstanding creation in the field of modern dance. Since the 1960's, it has been performed widely by such companies as the PAris Opera Ballet, Royal Danish Ballet, and the American Ballet Theater. Pavane is based on Shakespeare's Othello, and is in the form of a Pavane and other dances of the high Renaissance. |
