Goldstar freebie: Occupy Dance 2013

The Occupy Movement took to the streets in 2011, now it takes to the stage in Occupy Dance 2013: Economic Chaos Becomes Choreography at the Josephine Louis Theater in Evanston. The turbulent economy has influenced every facet of life … and of art. Occupy Dance 2013 expresses ideas of “poverty,” “disparity,” and “resistance” through the movement of the human body. Choreography simply doesn’t get any more contemporary or relevant. Under the artistic direction of Annie Beserra, the acclaimed choreographer and producer, Occupy Dance 2013 explores various dance forms including dance theater, contact improvisation and hip-hop. Guests artists Jump Rhythm Jazz Project (praised for their “exuberant physicality” by The New York Times) will also perform the 20th anniversary revival of “Getting There.”
