Middlegame - Dusan Tynek Dance Theatre Annual NYC Performance Season

Middlegame - Dusan Tynek Dance Theatre Annual NYC Performance Season
4 nights only, 3 premieres, 2 years in the making, 1 unforgettable experience! The countdown begins for Dusan Tynek Dance Theatre's 2010 NYC performance season - an evening of 3 premieres. Recently hailed by the New York Times as one of the Top 5 Dance Performances of the Year, the company is renowned for its unique blend of theatricality, musicality and humanism. Employing tactics of game strategy and seduction, Middlegame takes its inspiration from the game of chess and 19th century cafe life. Middlegame's music includes selections from Bach, Carlos Paredes, Raymond Scott, Yann Tiersen and Czech gypsies. Base Pairs is inspired by origin stories and is accompanied only by a single, ticking metronome, and a haunting text by Cynthia Polutanovich. Transparent Walls, set to the passionate music of Aleksandra Vrebalov, examines organized chaos where individuals break free from tumultuous machinery to find moments of humanity and connectedness.
