Dance Theater Workshop continues its longest-running signature series of new dance and performance, featuring works by emerging choreographers and performance artists. Fresh Tracks, which began as the DTW Studio Series in 1965, is DTW's oldest continuous program - it makes its 77th presentation this spring. During its history, the series has helped identify and launch the careers of such well-known choreographers as Ann Carlson, Bebe Miller, Molissa Fenley, Bill T. Jones, Wendy Perron, David Parsons, Doug Elkins, Nina Wiener, Donald Byrd and Belgium's Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker, among many others.
Condors returns to New York to debut a new, full-length work, Jupiter.
Founder Ryohei Kondo grew up in South America and has absorbed many different influences into his performance and choreography style and has danced with leading Japanese and American choreographers including Kota Yamazaki and Doug Varone. In 1995, he choreographed Fuji TV Broadcasting Company's summer concert, which toured to 40 venues in Japan. He was also an assistant choreographer for John Lone's stage production of Night and Day. Since 1996, the company has presented works integrating film and video and exemplifying elements of Japanese pop culture with humor and kitsch. Returning to New York after 15 years, Seattle-based choreographer and Guggenheim fellow Pat Graney brings us Tattoo, the final episode of her nationally acclaimed triptych.
