One Room (World Premiere)
Thursday, November 7 - Saturday, November 9th
TEK BOX at The Cowles Center for Dance and the Performing Arts
ARENA DANCES' Mathew Janczewski brings his subtle, rich and viscerally honest choreographic voice to to the TEK BOX stage with a one-of-a-kind performance. Mark your calendars for this full-evening of dance performed by an all-female sextet, against the backdrop of Nils Frahm’s experimental, ethereal and contemplative music. A theme of personal and collective power will prevail, as the dancers negotiate the space around them, and each other, with movement that builds layer by layer, working toward a powerful resolution. Crafted collaboratively between Janczewski and the dancers, the piece is an intentional meditation on a larger social question:
How do we come together in one room, face conflict and negotiate, so that we can find strength as one collective voice?
