  3. CASSANDRA


Kanopy Dance Company and former Martha Graham Company Dancer Sandra Kaufmann.

Cassandra (world premier)
Lisa Thurrell, Kanopy Co-Artistic Director and acclaimed composer Vicky Tzoumerka- Knoedler create a lush non-linear telling of the ancient greek story of Cassandra. Cursed to foresee the future and to have no one believe; an ancient yet relevant metaphor for our times.

Axiomata (Madison premier)
Guest Artist Sandra Kaufmann, Martha Graham Dance Company veteran animates one of William Blake's most luminous paintings Jacob's Dream. Described by Jennifer Dunning of the New York Times as "a lyrical idyll" this work radiates grace, passion and mystery in a lush symbolic landscape.

Solo (world premier)
Guest Artist Sandra Kaufmann, Martha Graham Dance Company veteran and award- choreographer explores the theme of death and rebirth and the humanistic desire to find simplicity and meaning in a complicated and cruel modern world. Set Gary Jules acoustic version of "Mad World" this dance searches for the places of peace in our dreams.

Untitled (world premier)
Kerry Parker, KDC's principal dancer creates stark and provocative works. “(Parker's) …satisfyingly complex choreography glittered with rhythmic finesse…” – S. Kepecs, The Daily Page

Performances at the Overture Center for the Arts, 201 State St, Madison, WI 53703.
