American Moderns
May 14th- May 25th, 2008
Auditorium Theatre of Roosevelt University
Hit the ground running with four explosive modern works that show off the non-stop athleticism of The Joffrey dancers: Paul Taylor’s hip and elegant Cloven Kingdom, a wry social commentary on man as a social animal; Mehmet Sander’s intense Inner Space, a fascinating, funny, harrowing work for three dancers in a Plexiglas box; Chicago choreographer, Lar Lubovitch’s “…smile with my heart” ; and The Joffrey premiere of Twyla Tharp’s sleek, sexy, and zany Waterbaby Bagatelles featuring especially powerful dancing from the Company’s men lit by ever-shifting arrangements of fluorescent bulbs.
“This program will excite our audiences and challenge our artists. It is pure Joffrey with its extreme contrasts in styles. It is a thrilling way to end the season”
