LUMBERYARD Center for Film and Performing Arts joins forces with New York Live Arts (Live Arts) to present the world premiere of Kathy Westwater's Rambler, Worlds Worlds A Part, February 14-16, 2019, having commissioned the work by selecting Westwater as the recipient of LUMBERYARD's 2017 Solange MacArthur Award for New Choreography. In Rambler, Worlds Worlds A Part, Westwater, whom The New Yorker has called "an unconventional choreographer now experiencing a surge of recognition," extends her 20-plus-year exploration of pain and the body, including the pain of others. While contemplating if it is possible to fully communicate the experience of one's own pain-and its opposite, bliss-or to fully know another's, the cast of dancers, including Westwater herself, responds to and celebrates the profound music of post-minimalist composer Julius Eastman.

Lines of light illuminate the pathway of a woman in flight. Her focus is razor sharp as she surveys men soaring around her in configurations that fluctuate between the flight patterns of birds and planes. Eventually these men hoist and entangle her in a never-ending series of lifts that keep her suspended as she writes on the air with her body. Skillfully made 'dancing for the sake of dancing' is a special treat to drink in especially when it stars a captivating wellspring of power like Alexandra Berger. For Dušan Týnek Dance Theatre's July 7th opening night concert at New York Live Arts, the radiance that Ms. Berger beamed in this opening piece proved hypnotic.
