EKMAN´S TRIPTYCH: A STUDY OF ENTERTAINMENT

MOONSHINE

A triptych made by the British choreographer Christopher Bruce. His name in the final credits is not, however, the only thing the three pieces have in common: they all deal with the issue of a retro perspective on pop-folk-rock music scene. All three choreographies were made to music composed in the 20th century. The night will open with a dance opus Dance at the Crossroads created to music of the Irish-Scottish band The Waterboys. With the second piece called Moonshine Bob Dylan's music will resound on stage. The triptych will close with an explosion of energy and the music of the Rolling Stones: the choreography called Rooster. more
