Big Dance Theater

The Dance Theater Workshop presents Big Dance Theater. The unlikely pairing of the infamous Nixon tapes and Kaspar Hauser, the 19th Century ‘wild child’ of Germany, are the basis of Big Dance Theater’s Plan B. Melding dance, song, and theater, the work examines corruption and power through the innocent eyes of Hauser, a child who mysteriously wandered into Nuremberg, apparently unaccustomed to civilizatioin. The score is by Gary Lucas and Phillip Johnson.
