The Bicentennial Celebration Tour | OCT 17
Originating in 1960s Japan, avant-garde dance form Butoh is difficult to narrowly define. But the visual markers—slow, mesmerizing movements, a dreamlike state, and shaven-head dancers covered head-totoe in white talc—are quintessential parts of famed Butoh troupe Sankai Juku. UMUSUNA explores the connection between fleeting human existence and the eternity of nature and the universe.
