Rubberbandance Premieres “Punto Ciego”

From Bill Menezes, Redfern: Rubberbandance Group, one of Canada’s foremost modern dance companies, will premiere their latest creation, “Punto Ciego” (“Blind Spot”), on Thursday, October 23, at 7:30 p.m. at the Redfern Arts Center.

The company unites world-class dancers from contemporary, classical, ballet, hip-hop, and break-dance backgrounds to investigate human relationships using film, video, and pulsing scores to create evenings of subtle story telling.

The full evening’s work is described as a tragic comedy that explores the relationships among six different people. At times the characters see their relationships only through a lens of virtual reality. During the course of the performance, they will defend their perceptions as well as question them. In the end, they accept their varying perspectives on the reality of these relationships.

Tickets are available through the Redfern box office (8-2168) or online at www.keene.edu/racbp.
