SUMMARY:No More Beautiful Dances
DESCRIPTION:Split bill with Becky’s Lament \n“No more beautiful dances” wrestles with the ideas of exploration\, introspection\, and reframing of a woman after becoming a mother\, and being an immigrant. Lenzu’s dance theater piece uses spoken word\, drawings\, and video projections to tell a personal vision of femininity\, and what it means to be a woman today. \nChoreographer/Dancer: Anabella Lenzu \nVideo Projection Design: Todd Carroll \nDirector: Daniel Pettrow \nCostumes: Jennifer Johanos \n“No More Beautiful Dances\,” a dance/theater solo in which the spoken word\, drawings\, and video projections merge to offer a very personal view of femininity and what it means to be a woman today. \nIn this interdisciplinary solo\, Anabella’s wrestles with issues of identity as experienced by a contemporary artist who is also a woman\, mother\, and immigrant. “I had arrived at a moment where I am 44 years old\,” she states\, “have two kids\, notice my body aging\, and reflecting on other changes psychologically and emotionally. The work keeps me humble and honest about who I am and what I look like. I show the things most people want to hide as dancers. I show the body of a 42-year old woman. For me it’s about embracing who I am at the moment.” On another level\, the artist feels that through dialogue with collaborators and mentors\, her work starts out specific\, but arrives at a universal message. \nThe choreography is captured not only by the audience\, but by two live-streaming cameras\, one above and the other below the stage area\, two laptops and two projectors. Technology in this piece is a magnifying glass\, showing something normally hidden from view. The cameras become a portal to another dimension for the audience and performer. \n​ \n*Photo credit: Theo Cote
