Cherylyn Lavagnino Dance Celebrates 24th Anniversary Season

About This Show

Cherylyn Lavagnino Dance celebrates its 24th anniversary season with the showing of two of Cherylyn Lavagnino’s artistic works, "Tales of Hopper" and "The Winter’s Tale." "Tales of Hopper," inspired by the work of the iconic American painter Edward Hopper, will be presented on May 30 and May 31. "The Winter’s Tale," based on one of William Shakespeare’s last great plays, will be shown on June 5 and June 6. Original music created in an artistic collaboration between choreographer Cherylyn Lavagnino and composer Martin Bresnick, will be performed live for CLD’s company of 11 dancers. All performances begin at 7:30pm. "Tales of Hopper" is theater-dance work which casts the dancers as figures plucked from selected Edward Hopper paintings, illuminating human connections through gestural movement. "The Winter's Tale" aligns with Lavagnino’s long history of illuminating the various societal challenges faced by women. The choreography embodies joy, madness, betrayal, and jealousy.
