My best,

ADF is in an expansive state of mind! We’re exploring out-of-the-box venues, performing in new neighborhoods, and even moving beyond the state of North Carolina. Through this, we hope to fuel our audience’s imaginations and perhaps challenge their notion of “modern dance.” This year we are thrilled to open preseason, in April, with two performances by LMnO3 at ADF’s Samuel H. Scripps Studios. Pilobolus will open the regular season with their internationally acclaimed magical production (only the second in the US) of Shadowland. We welcome back audience favorites such as Bill T. Jones /Arnie Zane Dance Company with the ADF commissioned second work of Analogy: A Trilogy and Hubbard Street Dance Chicago with an all William Forsythe program highlighting the intelligence and diversity of the legendary choreographer’s work. We also look forward to sharing five ADF debuts and 5 by 5, an evening of five distinctive performances by five of today’s hottest choreographers. If that wasn't enough, we get to share the talents of our beautiful students on the Footprints program as well as our faculty and musicians in their own programs. With 67 performances, 9 ADF commissioned world premieres, 14 different venues, over 52 days, take a deep breath, take your vitamins, and buckle up. It’s going to be a wild ride.

Deborah Lohse, Donnell Oakley, and Cori Marquis’ B.A.N.G.S.: made in america is a kaleidoscopic pageant of status, attention, categorization, and femininity. In their first evening-length work, LMnO3 shape-shift in style and identity, donning everything from velvet evening wear, to ripstop jumpsuits, to snack-filled purses, to sensible bathing suits, as the dancers explore what they are—and aren’t—qualified to do. Serious play and creative instincts rule as the trio obsesses over the ideas behind B.A.N.G.S., a mnemonic device frequently used by French language learners to remember which adjectives go in front of a noun: Beauty, Age, Number, Goodness, and Size. Utilizing hard rap, body percussion, headlamps, a game show, and the power of female relationships, this comedic trio sets aside its own fear and doubt, beginning to repurpose how we can unapologetically wear our own B.A.N.G.S. This performance contains nudity and adult language.

A BODY IN A LIBRARY Cameron Village Regional Library, Raleigh SUN, MAY 15 | 2:30PM-followed by a talk/video presentation at 3:30PM FREE PERFORMANCES! Eiko has expanded into the realm of solo artist in her latest work. She is returning this season with her series A Body in Places in three new venues. Central to the work is Eiko’s drive to explore non-traditional venues and respond to the innate characteristics of the specific place. These mini performances will offer a strange and intense experience that invites, almost forces, the viewer’s gaze to engage the performer’s gaze. Performing as a soloist, Eiko willfully partners with the particularities of places and viewers.

This work also includes a photo exhibition exploring the theme of A Body in Places with photographs by William Johnston of Eiko’s latest body of work in Valparaiso, Chile. Valparaiso is known for having one of the homes of poet Pablo Neruda and for the way it has encouraged graffiti artists to create fantastic visions in an already colorful city; it invited Eiko and Johnston to continue their collaboration and create images that express an innate creativity in a community where art is not limited to the elite. The exhibit at the Cameron Village Regional Library will take place in May while the exhibit in the lobby of Reynolds Industries Theater will take place June 16-July 30.

Additional Activities: Delicious Movement Workshop with Eiko Otake MON, MAY 9 | 6:00–8:00pm ADF’s Samuel H. Scripps Studios

From Trinity to Trinity Book Discussion with Eiko Otake TUE, MAY 10 | 7:00–8:30pm Durham County Main Library

ADF’s presentation of A Body in Places by Eiko is made possible with support from the New England Foundation for the Arts’ National Dance Project, with lead funding from the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation and The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, with additional support from the National Endowment for the Arts.

DURHAM FRI, JUNE 17 | 8:00PM PERFORMING SAT, JUNE 18 | 7:00PM ARTS CENTER FAMILY SATURDAY MATINEE | 1:00PM Fan favorite Pilobolus will kick off the 2016 season with Shadowland.

Created after several years of experimentation with short-form shadow play, Shadowland is part shadow act, part dance, part circus, and part concert. It’s a groundbreaking, first-of-its-kind performance conceived in collaboration with Steven Banks, lead writer for the playfully surreal animated series SpongeBob SquarePants, and propelled by a rhythmic original score by the popular American musician, producer, and film composer David Poe. The performance combines Pilobolus’s legendary approach to modern dance with high-energy, fast-paced multimedia innovation, including multiple moving screens of different sizes and shapes, and a groundbreaking merging of projected images and front-of-screen choreography that leverages darkness and light.

The evening performances contain nudity. The Family Matinee will include the same full-length program presented during evening performances. There will be no nudity at this performance.

A tour de force of expert jazz and tap dancing, this once in a lifetime session, co-presented with Duke Performances, brings together living legends, Savion Glover and Jack DeJohnette.

Glover, the world’s reigning king of tap, collaborates with legendary drummer and NEA Jazz Master DeJohnette, backed by a trio featuring George Colligan on piano and Jerome Harris on bass. Glover will be joined onstage by fellow hoofer, and longtime collaborator, Marshall Davis, Jr. This will be an evening of rhythmic genius, with DeJohnette’s drumming providing expert interplay for Glover’s cadenced dance.

The ADF commissioned Marksman, the latest work by Kate Weare, explores the nuance and precision we use to intuit one another on a magnetic level, etching formal patterns that serve us both biologically and aesthetically.

Using ancient senses remote from modern consciousness yet imperative to survival, Marksman delves into peripheral awareness, reflex, synchrony, repulsion, and the sheer forcefulness of formation. As always, Weare mines the magnetism and electrical connection between bodies that is emotionally resonant, imbuing Marksman with power, attraction, hierarchy, vulnerability, and aloneness.

Marksman is commissioned by ADF with support from the SHS Foundation and the Charles L. and Stephanie Reinhart Fund.

ADF’s presentation of Marksman is made possible by the New England Foundation for the Arts’ National Dance Project, with lead funding from the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation and The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, with additional support from the National Endowment for the Arts.

Sara Juli returns to ADF to perform Tense Vagina: an actual diagnosis, a work about motherhood—its beauty, challenges, isolation, comedy, and influence on the human experience. This hour-long, evening-length solo uses humor, movement, sounds, songs, text, and audience participation to reveal “all that is awesome and all that sucks” when it comes to being a mother. Tense Vagina focuses on the seldom-discussed and taboo aspects of motherhood, such as loss of bladder control, tears, monotony, loneliness, and dildos.

DURHAM PERFORMING ARTS CENTER

FRI, JUNE 24 | 8:00PM SAT, JUNE 25 | 7:00PM CHILDREN’S SATURDAY MATINEE | 1:00PM

Stephen Petronio Company will present three works as a part of Bloodlines, a five-year project that incorporates dances by trailblazers of American postmodern dance into the company’s repertory and presents them alongside new works by Stephen Petronio. Merce Cunningham’s RainForest (1968), a spare and bracing foray into animal abstract motion and sound, set loose amidst a world of floating silver pillows, features an electronic score composed by David Tudor performed live each evening, with visual design by Andy Warhol. Trisha Brown’s Glacial Decoy (1979), her first work for the proscenium stage, plays with theatrical convention. Glacial Decoy features iconic projections depicting classic Americana and billowing white costumes by Robert Rauschenberg and is the first of many Brown/Rauschenberg collaborations. Petronio’s Locomotor (2014) addresses the elemental act of bodies traveling—extreme locomotive states that cast the dancers in a careening mix of action forward and backward through time and space. Locomotor features an original score by electronic pioneer Clams Casino, lighting design by Petronio’s longtime collaborator Ken Tabachnick, and costumes by Narciso Rodriguez, one of America’s foremost designers.

Solos, duets, quartets, and more choreographed by five of the dance world’s most electrifying artists! Mark Dendy will perform an excerpt from Dystopian Distractions! (2014). In an army uniform and a gas mask, Dendy sits on a stool gesturing to the sound of Donald Rumsfeld being interviewed. His animations transform the interview into a significant piece of performance art. Dafi Altabeb deals with life choices. What do we really choose in our lives, and what are mere products of a familiar routine? How many times have you asked yourself whether the person you live with is somebody you have chosen or somebody you have grown accustomed to? Questions of this nature are closely examined in her Never The Less (2012).

Gabrielle Revlock’s Halo (2012) is an intimate and sensual solo that makes manifest the fields of energy around the dancing body through the use of a simple hula-hoop. At times the dancer seems to disappear and only the hoop is visible. At other points, the audience may forget about the hoop and only see a fragile gyrating body. Brian Brooks’ Torrent (2014) fluctuates between orderly patterns and unrestrained turbulence. Torrent sends the company of eight dancers soaring to Max Richter’s revelatory score. Rosie Herrera completes this program with an ADF commissioned new work.

Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company presents the second part of Analogy: A Trilogy developed by Bill T. Jones with Associate Artistic Director Janet Wong. In this ADF commissioned world premiere work, Analogy/Lance: Pretty aka the Escape Artist, we meet Lance, whose battles with his own personal demons of drugs and excess expose us to another type of war. It was the battlefield of the nightlife and underworld of the late 80s and early 90s club culture and sex trade. This “pretty boy-gangster thug,” a name he acquired in prison, holds steadfast to his often tragic and sometimes outrageously humorous narrative, while facing an uncertain future.

Inspired by W.G. Sebald’s The Emigrants, Jones continues his exploration of how text, storytelling, and movement pull and push against each other and how another experience can be had through the combination and recombination of these elements. All three stories in the trilogy, while wildly different, ruminate on the nature of service, duty, and the question of what is a life well lived.

This performance contains adult language and subject matter.

John Jasperse Projects returns to ADF with the world premiere of an ADF co-commissioned work, Remains (working title). The piece is made in collaboration with performers Maggie Cloud, Marc Crousillat, Burr Johnson, Heather Lang, Stuart Singer, and Claire Westby, composer John King, lighting designer Lenore Doxsee, who collaborated with Jasperse on Within between (ADF 2014), and video designer Jeff Larson. The work addresses the illusion of ego, the notion of a fluid boundary between the self and one’s environment, and the notion of legacy as the sum total of the energy that we put out into the world—what we build energetically in our environment through our actions and what we leave behind in our wake.

The presentation of Remains (working title) is made possible by the New England Foundation for the Arts’ National Dance Project, with lead funding from the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation and The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

Hubbard Street Dance Chicago returns with a not-to-be-missed all William Forsythe program.

N.N.N.N. appears as a mind in four parts, four dancers in a state of constant, tacit connection, underscored by the sudden murmured flashes of Thom Willems’ music. Quintett’s seamless progression of solos, duets, and trios for five dancers runs in concert with—and counter to—themes of loss, hope, fear, and joy heard in Gavin Bryars’ 1971 orchestral composition, “Jesus’ Blood Never Failed Me Yet.” One Flat Thing, reproduced begins with a roar: twenty tables, like jagged rafts of ice, fly forward and become the surface, the underground, and the sky inhabited by a ferocious flight of dancers. This pack of bodies rages with alacrity, whipping razor-like in perilous waves. Its score, by composer and longtime Forsythe collaborator Willems, begins quietly before becoming a gale, gathering sonic force as the dancers’ bodies produce a voracious and detailed storm of movement.

“With a clever nod to the geniuses of the past and a great affinity for storytelling, Lubovitch is one of the most brilliant, innovative, and original choreographers working today…”

–Broadway World

DURHAM PERFORMING ARTS CENTER

MON, JULY 11 | 7:00PM TUES, JULY 12 | 8:00PM

Men’s Stories (2000) is Lar Lubovitch’s powerful exploration of masculinity, biography, and character. Lubovitch has described the work as “a dance that opens up, like a book, to reveal the story of the men inside the dance.” This 45-minute work for 9 men is acclaimed for both its choreography and its virtuosic male dancing. The dance tells its stories though a “collage” format, rather than a linear narrative structure. The unusual commissioned score—also a collage—combines original music with samplings of classical music and other audio effects, creating “a concerto in ruin.” Concerto Six Twenty-Two, one of Lubovitch’s most-acclaimed works, premiered at Carnegie Hall in 1986. Although “men dancing” has existed in modern dance almost from the beginning, Concerto brought a new freedom of expression to this concept. While Concerto does not tell a literal story, it does indelibly portray men (for the first time) within a caring, supportive, and loving relationship. In the mid-80s, this aspect of Concerto gave the work special resonance in the face of the AIDS crisis, but the theme is timeless. The company will perform the male duet from Concerto at ADF. North Star (1st movement), Scriabin Dances, and Othello Pas de Deux (Act III) will round out the program.

$18 TICKETS Co-presented by 21c Museum Hotel, The Ghost Festival is the first multi-disciplinary solo project by artist Koma Otake, one half of the performance artists Eiko & Koma. Using a mobile trailer, Koma presents a gallery of works meant to be both an interactive visual art installation as well as a performance space. Koma envisions a meditative and communal space to honor the connection between past and present and provide a home for lost spirits. The Ghost Festival is a solo project in the most absolute way. The set design, paintings, choreography, and lighting have all been created or set up by Koma himself. Koma states that he is not a visual artist by trade and that movement is his “true language.” Only through performance and the presence of his body in relation to the set does the installation and The Ghost Festival truly come to form.

Tatiana Baganova’s Sepia (2010), originally commissioned by ADF and danced by students and now reimagined for her company, is a work capturing the atmosphere of Kōbō Abe’s book Woman in the Dunes. The sand in the piece becomes a symbol of time, the habitat of heroes, and is a symbolic element in the changing of consciousness. The endlessness of the rolling sand is highlighted by the long slow sounds of Avet Terteryan’s symphony. Maple Garden (1999) presents strong, compelling, and mysterious visions. A barebranched tree, bird sounds, and a man with a large butterfly net are just some of the images that make this work appear part fairytale and part grim dream. Beautiful, if grotesque, and bewitching.

$18 TICKETS! “What would have happened if one of the early postmoderns from Judson Church had gone uptown to perform in the voguing ballroom scene in Harlem?” This is the question Trajal Harrell asks in his performance piece Judson Church is Ringing in Harlem (M2M), part of Twenty Looks or Paris is Burning at The Judson Church. In Judson Church is Ringing in Harlem, Harrell makes a work for three dancers which engages the formalism and minimalism of postmodernism with the flamboyancy of voguing.

Combining these contrasting styles, Harrell also looks at the influence of jazz and improvisation in early postmodern dance. This performance is co-presented by the Nasher Museum of Art at Duke.

After last season’s electrifying, sellout performances, Company Wang Ramirez is back with another genre-defying work. The company, known for their emotional and powerful blend of contemporary and hip hop dance, presents Borderline (2013), exploring themes of constraint, manipulation, and the meaning of democracy.

Attached to cables, the five dancers bring to light and transpose the desire of freedom inherent in all forms of dance, especially hip hop, with costumes that reflect both Greek and Korean traditions. The dance expands the dialogue between technique and the art of rigging while reflecting on human relationships. Social boundaries are evoked by the interplay of physical forces on the stage as well as through the broadcast testimonies collected from the dancers’ friends, relatives, and the media.

Beth Gill’s minimalist works explore the tension between formalist structures and psychological themes, where layers of meaning unfold over a prolonged sense of time. For Footprints, Gill will continue to research the often highly controlled systems designed to simultaneously distill and free gestures within her work. Gill’s process will engage the darker and more instinctual content of psychology, human nature, and expression. Dafi Altabeb’s work is tender, delicate, yet powerful. Her pieces project youth, courage, imagination, contradictions, and above all, honesty.

Her creations come from the heart. Lee Sher and Saar Harari established LeeSaar The Company in 2000. They use the different disciplines and training of theater and dance to create original dance performances. Their works display an astonishing array of movements, from minimal to jumping, twisting, and falling to the floor, all with beautiful ease.

Footprints delivers an outstanding presentation of four ADF commissioned world premieres by groundbreaking artists, performed with impeccable technique and infectious energy by ADF students.

FREE! Characterizing human behavior in movement is an aesthetic Vanessa Voskuil has developed over the duration of her work. For Voskuil, moving is considered a specific way of being. Ranging from large community-inclusive performance works to ensemble and solo works for site-specific locations and theater settings, her work has been described as “visually arresting,” “boldly and uncompromisingly moving within its own time and its own logic,” and “interlaced with surrealist sensibility and bracing intelligence.”

FRI, JULY 29 | 8:00PM SAT, JULY 30 | 7:00PM

Closing out ADF’s Durham season is one of modern dance’s most beloved companies. Paul Taylor Dance Company will perform Promethean Fire (2002).

Set to three keyboard works by Bach as richly orchestrated by Stokowski, Promethean Fire examines a kaleidoscope of emotional colors in the human condition. All 16 Taylor dancers, costumed in black, weave in and out of intricate patterns that mirror the way varied emotions weave themselves through life. A central duet depicts conflict and resolution following a cataclysmic event. But if destruction has been at the root of this dance, renewal of the spirit is its overriding message. Additional classic Taylor repertory will round out the program.

Audio description available upon request. Please call 919-684-6402 to request by July 15.

Rosie Herrera brings her Miami-based company to present Various Stages of Drowning: A Cabaret (2009). At once campy and poignant, Drowning recreates dream states using dance, theater, cabaret, and film. World Dance Reviews calls Herrera “a magician that twists our emotions” and The Classical Voice of North Carolina says “this work is strange and adventurous, bright and cheeky… as much dance as it is theater and is as highly theatrical as it is booty shaking kinetic.” Herrera will also perform her latest ADF commissioned work, sure to charm the pants off of any audience.

THE JOYCE THEATER

in

Provincial Dances Theatre is presented by ADF with support by the Trust for Mutual Understanding.

ov pr

Tatiana Baganova’s Sepia (2010) is a work capturing the atmosphere of Kōbō Abe’s book Woman in the Dunes. The sand in the piece becomes a symbol of time, the habitat of heroes, and is a symbolic element in the changing of consciousness.

The endlessness of the rolling sand is highlighted by the long slow sounds of Avet Terteryan’s symphony. Maple Garden (1999) presents strong, compelling, and mysterious visions. A bare-branched tree, bird sounds, and a man with a large butterfly net are just some of the images that make this work appear part fairytale and part grim dream. Beautiful, if grotesque, and bewitching.
