Sunday, December 18 at 8:00 PM at The Performance Garage
A program divided in two.
Part one features a mix of pieces Sean Thomas Boyt and Dr. Andy Thierauf have developed this past year and performed ACROSS AMERICA: Seattle, Minneapolis, Philadelphia, and New York City! These duets feature elements including acoustic tambourine courtship (Let's Dancing!), original music commissions (_grind), cow poses (Midwest Piece), pseudo avant garde tap dancing (Halftime Dance), and live video projections (Trio).
Part two is the premiere of Blanc & Bonk: a ballet/revue/concert/celebration of plagiarism we've been collecting and performing for the past fifteen months. Featuring socially and historically important compositions and choreography, the curated medley chronicles dance-and-music collaborations through the ages... shown slightly off-kilter. Extracting moments from classical ballets to modern-day music videos, stb x at has reduced entire orchestrations to a solo vibraphone and transposed prima ballerina gestures onto a dragged-up try-hard.
