Events for June 26, 2013

Sofa Club, Conveyor, Arms and Bladerunner Trio

Part of a month-long La MaMa Moves Dance Festival, "The Painted Bird Trilogy is an ambitious, emotionally charged production inspired by the classic and controversial novel of the same name by Polish-born author Jerzy Kosinski. The allegorical novel tells the story of a young boy making his way through war-time Eastern Europe and a brilliantly painted bird that is violently killed by its own flock, which mistakes it for an impostor. Award-winning choreographer and director Pavel Zuštiak excavates the tale’s themes—identity, otherness, displacement, and transformation—in three uniquely staged performance events. His approach integrates dance, video, and visual projections with live music." - La MaMa.

"Bella's Dream follows the true story of Bella and Raymond Boll, who, heeding the advice of a dream, left Gombin, Poland in 1939, mere weeks before the Nazis invaded. The play juxtaposes scenes from their journey with the present day experiences of their grown son, Ronny, fighting prejudices he thought long gone." - CVS Center
