Lucinda Childs Dance: A Portrait (1963-2016)
CAP | Saturday, Nov. 5, Royce Hall
Celebrating one of America’s great modern choreographers, Lucinda Childs: A Portrait (1963–2016) is an evening-length retrospective of early and recent works created for the Lucinda Childs Dance Company over five decades.
Works include the iconic solo performance Pastime (1963), the early silent pieces Radial Courses (1976) and Interior Drama (1977), Concerto (1993) with music by Henryk Gorecki; Lollapalooza (2010) with music by longtime collaborator John Adams, and a movement from her recent work Kilar (2013), with music by contemporary composer Wojciech Kilar. Featured on the program will be the world premiere of The Sun Roars Into View, a collaboration between Lucinda Childs and composers/instrumentalists Colin Stetson and Sarah Neufeld, best known for their work with Arcade Fire and Bon Iver.
Recognizing the importance of Lucinda Childs as a seminal figure in modern dance, Lucinda Childs: A Portrait (1963–2016) honors the work that she has created over five decades in juxtaposition with her most recent output. A Portrait traces Lucinda Childs at the very peak of her creative power.
