Weekend Round Up Septemeber 5, 2013


Australia Home Land

September 6th, 2013 at 06:00 PM | Free to The Public | Event Website

CityDance resident artist, Sarah J. Ewing, is premiering her dance work, Australia Home Land, at The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts Millennium Stage on September 5 & 6 at 6:00PM. The performance is free to the public!

Australia Home Land, Ewing’s first full-length piece, was selected as one of two works commissioned in this year’s Kennedy Center Local Dance Commissioning Project. Five dancers struggle to co-exist on a dual-level set featuring a cross-section of Australia’s red earth. This unusual set uses the Millenium stage in a fresh and unexpected way. The tension created by the space is integral to the dancers interactions adding dimension to an already strong story.
