Cherylyn Lavagnino Dance to Present THE WINTER'S TALE at The DiMenna Center for Classical Music
Performances will take place on Wednesday, June 10 and Thursday, June 11 at 7:30 PM at The DiMenna Center for Classical Music.
Cherylyn Lavagnino Dance will return to New York City with performances of its full-length theater-dance work, The Winter’s Tale, on Wednesday, June 10 and Thursday, June 11 at 7:30 PM at The DiMenna Center for Classical Music.
Set to an original score by renowned composer Martin Bresnick, conducted by Lisa Moore and performed live each evening by a sextet chamber ensemble, The Winter’s Tale exemplifies CLD’s longstanding commitment to the dynamic interplay between dance and live music.
Inspired by one of William Shakespeare’s final plays, this evocative production explores themes of jealousy, loyalty, betrayal, forgiveness, and renewal. Lavagnino’s distinctive choreographic language - blending classical ballet technique with contemporary expression - incorporates gesture-based movement influenced by sign language, creating a rich emotional landscape brought to life by her company of twelve dancers.
