Bill T. Jones/ Arnie Zane Dance Company Brings "Body Against Body" & "Serenade/ The Proposition"

Posted June 23, 2011

The Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company brings two extraordinary productions to The International Festival of Arts & Ideas. Body Against Body (tonight only!) is a recreation of a revolutionary work originally performed by Jones and his partner Arnie Zane in the late 1970's and early 1980's that forms an exploration of racial and gender issues. Serenade/The Proposition (Friday night and Saturday matinee), is a reflection on the life and work of Abraham Lincoln that blends social, political and historical themes in a stunning performance that features an original score. Meet Janet Wong, Associate Artistic Director for the Company, then come see these bold, eclectic performances at the University Theater!
