What fun to have opening and closing flower petals as a metaphor for Perdita’s Dance in Winter’s Tale, Second Act! So lucky to work with director, George Drance.

To pull out Klytaimestra’s gut-fueled desire for justice/revenge, the Greek and Tribal Acting techniques I used with Nisarah were based on actively connecting her body sections and even her organs to her voice of power.

Kassandra was on stage for much of the play without a word to say to establish her presence. Using techniques I’ve adapted from ancient sources, I coached her to listen with her entire body using breath and unique images as a way to communicate with the audience.
Christine Sang’s Choreography, Open Fist Theater Company, James Joyce’s The Dead
This shows one of the Irish dance sets I adapted as the choreography for The Open Fist Theater Company’s production of Joyce’s “The Dead.” It’s a six-hand jig, which is just that – a dance for six people. Which translates into multitudes of multiples of 6 possible combinations: a choreographer’s dream.

The moving, haunting, beautiful theater that James Joyce’s The Dead evokes will be playing again, mid-January, Los Angeles. Originally directed by Charles Otte, Jessica Kubzansky, of the famed Boston Court, will be recreating the OFTC remounting of this haunting play. I’m so pleased to add my choreography once again to this beautiful piece.
