Divine Mythologies

Manhattan, NY - Experts of austere drama, the Sokolow Theatre/Dance Ensemble unites with Wisconsin-based Kanopy Dance to present Divine Mythologies. Featuring a cast of twenty one dancers, this production is a rare undertaking in today’s dance world of small, independent creators. The collaboration includes “Odes,” a 1965 dance by modern dance pioneer Anna Sokolow, and “Ekstasi,” by Kanopy’s Artistic Director and former Martha Graham dancer Lisa Thurrell. Two solos balance the group dances: “Transformations,” by Kanopy co-artistic director Robert Cleary, and an excerpt from Sokolow’s “Lyric Suite”.
