Hiroaki Umeda: "assimilating" and "Moving State 1”
Company:
Hiroaki Umeda
A double-bill of the latest cutting-edge dance works by choreographic mastermind Hiroaki Umeda: assimilating and Moving State 1. The evening-length program begins with Moving State 1, performed by four female protégées from Umeda’s Somatic Field Project, who embody Umeda’s fluid movements. Next, Umeda himself performs assimilating, an electrifying solo performance. These New York performances arrive as part of a five-city North American premiere tour produced and organized by Japan Society, with additional stops including Amherst, MA (March 11), Philadelphia, PA (March 14 & 15), Washington, D.C. (March 17 & 18) and Nashville, TN (March 26 – 28). Performance runs approximately 55 minutes.
