We are excited to announce our eagerly awaited 2024 performance series to take place at The DiMenna Center for Classical Music in Manhattan, May 30-31 and June 5-6, 2024. This two-week series will feature the beloved Tales of Hopper along with the world premiere of The Winter's Tale. These performances will be elevated by renowned live musicians performing Bresnick’s original compositions, infusing our works with a distinct auditory dimension that is sure to resonate deeply with our audiences.
Our confirmed roster of performers and collaborators:
Musicians: Lisa Moore (piano), Elly Toyoda (violin), Miriam Liske-Doorandish (cello), Graeme Steele Johnson (clarinet), Amir Farsi (flute), Brendon Randall-Myers (electric guitar), Eleonore Oppenheim (double bass).
Dance artists: Alexis Branagan, Dervla Carey-Jones, Justin Faircloth, Erin Gallagher, Corinne Hart, Barrington Hinds, Ramona Kelley, Michael Miles, Emma Pajewski, Philip Strom, and Arianna Tsivkin.
Creative collaborators: Martin Bresnick (composer), Frank DenDanto III (Lighting Design), Karen Boyer (Costume Designer), Stacey Boggs (Stage Manager).
“An exciting interplay of societal niceties, punctuated by sign language-inspired gestures, the piece balanced humor and drama with finesse. Opposite gender casting created intrinsic tension that powered the dancers' movement, keeping the audience guessing and at the edge of their seats.”
