Originally commissioned by ADF in 1988, Molissa Fenley’s “State of Darkness” challenges Stravinsky’s cacophonous “Le Sacre du Printemps” (“The Rite of Spring”) with an intense 35-minute solo performance of relentless fervency, technical precision, and fearless abandon. Fenley reimagined the commanding score as the sonic landscape for a solo journey rather than the usual ensemble interpretations. Michael Trusnovec of the Paul Taylor Dance Company performs at 7:30 pm. The program is followed by a Q and A with Molissa Fenley and the artist.
The restaging of State of Darkness is a Joyce Theater Production generously supported by the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation. Additional funding was provided by the Executive Director's Fund at The Joyce Theater Foundation, with support from Jessica Lang Dance, Inc.
Programs last approximately 60 minutes with no intermission.
