About this Event
Considered by critics to be both modern and contemporary, Benita Bike’s DanceArt brings a program of original concert dance works to the Lineage Performing Arts Center. Known for its “beautifully evocative choreography and lovely company of dancers,” the Company looks forward to share its own brand of musicality, architectural choreography, and elegant dancing with audiences. This concert program features:
▪ Premiere of From Where I Sit – Different characters share their states of mind in vignettes titled “Ascending,” “Tired of it All,” “Corruptor,” “Solace,” & “On Edge.”
▪ Off the Path – A woman-child stumbles upon a world of mystery, only to be swallowed up by its creatures. Fabric carves the stage space & connects inhabitants.
▪ Aspects of Me – a celebration of the complexity of self with solos and duets titled “Me and Myself,” “Me and the Branch,” “Me and Her,” and “We.”
▪ Griot Songs – 3 stages of womanhood: child into woman, young womanhood, and maturity
▪ For Rose – about the passing of Benita Bike's mother Rose. Stark and poignant, this dance touches on complicated feelings of love, discord, and death.
