"Rupture" is a new dance theater piece by choreographer Jill Sigman, that premieres at Danspace in New York City February 8-11, for which Norwegian Kristin Norderval have composed the music and will be performing live.
7/27/2007 :: "Rupture" is a feverish dream, a strange requiem, an Alice in Wonderland story in a time of disorder. Set in a charged landscape that includes hundreds of broken eggshells, the work weaves together the story of Sigman's acute calf injury with her travels in India, Berlin, and New Orleans to explore breaking and healing on personal, architectural, and global scales. Conceived as a solo with chorus, Rupture is danced by choreographer Jill Sigman with Toby Billowitz, Donna Costello, Hilary Maia Grubb, and Jennifer Sydor. The multi-media work is set to an original score for voice and electronics performed live by Kristin Norderval, with live video mixing by Katherine Liberovskaya, video editing by Jill Sigman and Lisa Niedermeyer and lighting and set design by Jonathan Belcher. Admission: $15.00 (members $10.00)
When: February 8-11, 2007, at 8:30 pm (Sun at 7:30pm)
Where: Danspace Project, 131 East 10th Street, NYC
