Opus Cactus

In Opus Cactus, Moses Pendleton brings the landscape of the American Southwest to life with his signature illusionistic style. Giant saguaros, tumbleweeds, fire dancers, cactus wrens, and a slithering Gila monster emerge from an ingenious use of costumes, lighting, and the human body as, once again, Pendleton and the superbly physical MOMIX dancers extend the reach of the imagination — and dance — into worlds strange and new.
