SUMMARY:Le Patin Libre
DESCRIPTION:Unbounded by the terrestrial\, thousands of birds move in synchronous patterns across the sky\, like one enormous organism. The word murmuration is derived from the sound of hundreds of wings in flight\, a thrumming rush that also curiously recalls the scrape and glide of ice-skates. \nFounded by competitive skaters\, Le Patin Libre upended the conventional idea of ice shows to create a radical new form of movement\, infused with speed\, power\, and a dizzying momentum that goes beyond the virtuosic into a new place of unfettered freedom. \nInspired by the aerial choreography of birds\, Le Patin Libre’s Murmuration transposes the swoops\, swirls and configurations of mass flight to the ice. To fully embody this phenomenon\, Le Patin Libre sought out the world’s most highly skilled skaters through a series of international auditions. Complex algorithms\, infused and emboldened with meticulous choreography\, become an aeriform ballet\, embedded with risk\, but mesmerizing in its beauty and razored precision. \nAs the performers mimic the movements of creatures fully in sync\, the line between individuals and the collective blurs\, then disappears. This group of virtuoso performers becomes a living plurality\, moving together with instinctual ease – the very incarnation of grouped flight and epic grace. \n

SUMMARY:Gaurav Bhatti
DESCRIPTION:Working at the intersection of the North Indian classical form of Kathak and contemporary dance\, Gaurav Bhatti is known for virtuosic performances which encompass explosive energy\, dramatic complexity\, and eloquent emotion. His new solo is inspired by the life and poetry of the 18th-century Sufi mystic Bulleh Shah\, who spoke out against powerful institutions\, and advocated for tolerance at a time of violent religious strife. \nIntegrating Kathak\, Punjabi folk dances\, and Western movement forms\, Bhatti applies his distinctive contemporary sensibility to reassert Shah’s enduring message of universal love\, and pays homage to the rich artistic heritage of the Punjab. \nPost-show artist talkback March 29. \nPROGRAM
