“Outer Half” -
an aerial dance piece for 4 dancers and 5 live musicians

PIECE DESCRIPTION:


"Outer Half"

Choreography/concept/costumes/set: Karola Luttringhaus

Dance: Andrea Lieske, Karola Luttringhaus, Cat Matlock Schmitt, Natalie Bowers,
Music: The Bell Brothers
Lighting design: Jonathan Christman/Karola Luttringhaus

Suspended from ropes, 4 dancers appear gravityless and free from their surroundings. The lighting creates a distinct visual illusion, separating the dancers from the floor.
A live jazz based improvisation by 5 musicians, carries the audience and the dancers along, only allowing them to rest when the music itself comes to a halt.
"Outer Half" is gentle and elegant.
