REVIEW: Cedar Lake Contemporary Ballet Intensive Students Perform 360º Installation

REVIEW: Cedar Lake Contemporary Ballet Intensive Students Perform 360º Installation

Jul 29th, 20111 Comment

Last night, students of the Cedar Lake Contemporary Ballet summer 2011 Intensive Program performed in an interactive installation piece at Cedar Lake’s homebase in NYC. In the current performance trend of audience free-flow, the installation directed viewers to and from five different stage spaces, making the experience somewhat of a choose-your-own-adventure, as dancing occured simultaneously in opposite directions. The cutting-edge tone of the evening, incorporating multi-media video projection, aerial work, sculpture, and live musical score shows that CLCB is committed to showing their students the real deal of the current dance world. It re-imagines the audience relationship, and frames the dancing in a world of other visual design elements.
