A Dance Rhapsody in the key of Dalí
Directed by Brian Rott & Jenni Reinke Reality is crumbling, burning, melting... Rocks erode revealing fragments of face. Seas dry to string accompaniment as a naked man languishes in a rubber egg. Visionless missionaries saunter down streets with unfamiliar feet. Clocks drip...This is the world of Salvador Dalí, a stone's throw from reality, the surface beneath the scratch, and Quasimondo's latest itch. "The only difference between me and a madman is that I'm not mad." - Dalí The Spanish Surrealist defined a movement that perverted and pervaded the worlds of art and popular culture to the present day. This delirious production fuses dance, music, puppetry, circus, poetry, visual art, and more in a stunning sensory collage that challenges material classification. 7 Composers. 7 Choreographers. 7 Visual Artists. This is not theatre, dance, music, or gallery night. It's all of them.This epic inter-arts collaboration arranges a delectable ensemble of some of Milwaukee's most innovative performing and visual artists on safari in search for the substance of dreams. |
