Raison D’être’s immersive production explores intersection of science & art
On June 10th and 11th, Raison D’être Dance Project will present a contemporary summer production at the Commons on Baxter & Love. “Rachmaninov + Plutonia” will begin at 7:30pm on Friday and 6pm Saturday. Tickets range $20–$75.
Rachmaninov, the show’s first act, features renowned guest pianist Alexei Ulitin and conductor Michael Sakir with a full live orchestra, guest cellist Else Trygstad-Burke, groundbreaking choreography and couture-inspired costumes. The second act, Plutonia, is an original work inspired by themes of outer space and set to an original electronic score by Nina Tucciarelli. Plutonia breaks the bounds of ballet by incorporating aerial dance and a brain wave and movement experiment.
The production will be immersive for the audience, with a stage “in-the-round,” scenic design by visual artists and metalsmiths, and explorations of the intersection of science and art. These performances will offer a thrilling experience for audiences.
Abundant parking is available at the venue. Please have your e-ticket to show for entry, or provide your printed ticket. Learn more about the local dance project at www.raisondetredance.org, where you can also purchase tickets for ‘Rachmaninov + Plutonia.’ •
