We invite you to join these brilliant dancers as they present an exciting mix of audience favorites, featuring a variety of dances filled with high energy, humor, and drama.  RDT will perform selections from "The Mazurkas," first presented by the Jose Limon Dance Company in 1958 to pay tribute to the heroic spirit of the Polish people in their revival after World War II; selected works by Michio Ito, who brought about the literary, musical, and artistic breakthroughs of modernism, and the eclectic beginnings of American modern dance; "Something About Night," with choreography by Lar Lubovitch, whose motivation was a desire to be quiet and the quieting of the mind; and "Outdoors," a contemporary, tribalistic, pattern-piece filled with quirky invention and laced with rhythmic humor by choreographers Noa Zuk and Ohad Fishof. RDT is celebrating 57 years of dance and remains committed to building bridges of understanding that de-mystify the art of dance.
