Note:
Guests of this event receive a limited-edition poster by Jen DeNike.
This free-form ballet by Jen DeNike takes its inspiration from last-century eminence George Balanchine and its name from that favorite phenomenon of seers: visions that materialize on reflective surfaces (i.e. water, mirrors, and crystal balls). The danseuses cast a hush with supple, on-point contortions and movements done over and over, all choreographed by the gifted Melissa Barak. This premiere is preceded by the trance-inducing sounds of Soft Circle, with Ben Vida and former Black Dice drummer Hisham Bharoocha conjuring up a new, many-textured piece especially for this evening.
