Event Details
Nationally acclaimed ISHIDA Dance Company is back.
Pulitzer prize-winning dance critic Sarah L Kaufman described ISHIDA’s work as “deeply poignant” and “remarkable”.
“The dancers weaved pure magic in the air, and you could almost hear jaws dropping as they moved…” wrote Brett Cullum, Broadway World.
Rara avis which means “rare bird” in Latin is a highly physical, visually stunning and emotionally resonant international program with critically acclaimed dancers and choreography. The world premiere of Rara avis by ISHIDA follows a singer who struggles with imposter syndrome as she returns to stage after taking a hiatus.
The program includes Mutual Comfort by world renowned Romanian choreographer Edward Clug and a new dance theater work by award-winning British Finnish choreographer Kristian Lever. The evening promises to be a unique opportunity to see some of the best and most interesting choreography from Europe and the U.S.
VIP tickets include access to the VIP post performance reception on the Mezzanine level for a toast to meet the dancers and Artistic Director.
