About This Show

Molissa Fenley and Dancers join forces with composer Anthony Davis and The Kitchen’s ten-piece House Blend band to restage the critically acclaimed Hemispheres, last seen in its entirety at its 1983 BAM premiere. Propelled by Davis’s Bessie-winning score, the seductive churning of the dance packs a percussive punch that is hard to resist. This performance also features new work for ensemble: the U.S. premiere of Lava Field with music by John Bischoff, Kuro Shio set to a score by Bun-Ching Lam, and Water Courses, a dance of swirling eddies banked by poet Joy Harjo’s taped vocal composition.
