In Sync, Fall 2021

The Department of Dance at Case Western Reserve University celebrates
movement and innovation by leading off the 2021-22 season with In Sync, a
collection of new and revisited dance works.

In Sync will be performed October 29 and 30, November 4, 5, and 6 at 8 p.m.
and October 31 at 2:30pm at Mather Dance Center, 11040 Bellflower Road, on
the Case Western Reserve campus in University Circle.

In Sync features the newest production of Les Noces by Pascal Rioult, the
return of Pam Tanowitz’s Like Fragments from an Old Song, as well as the
premiere of Ubi Sunt by department chair Karen Potter. A 2019 audience
favorite Brothers by Gary Galbraith will also return, along with the
premiere of the companion piece Sisters.

Les Noces, by two time recipient of the Choo-San Goh Award for
Choreography Pascal
Rioult, is a sexually charged deconstruction of the marriage ritual,
infusing the strong structural composition with provocative movement and
unabashed energy.

Pam Tanowitz’s Like Fragments From an Old Song is set to and inspired by Broad
and Free, a composition for violin and piano by contemporary composer
Caroline Shaw. The work was created during Tanowitz’s eight day CWRU
residency in 2019 and explores fragmented movements woven together by the
dancers’ connectivity and intuition, with an homage to the history of
Mather Dance Center.

Created by chair of the department Karen Potter, Ubi Sunt is a somber dance
for 10 women that was loosely inspired by the sadness endured when losing a
loved one.

Brothers, premiered in 2019 by Galbraith, showcases 7 of the men of the
dance department. Set to the music of Barbatuques, Brothers brings forward
a camaraderie among the men in a highly rhythmic and dynamic field of
motion. Drawing from the strengths of the men, this dance has a tribal
quality yet remains a contemporary, communal ensemble.

Also on the program is the premiere of Sisters, the companion piece to
Brothers, thus completing the Sibling series. Like Brothers, Sisters
features a cast of 7 women and shares the same kind of tribal and primitive
feeling yet remains contemporary. Utilizing the driving score by Mikkael
Karlsson, Sisters is a celebration of the communal power and strength of
women.

Tickets are $10 for students, $12 for seniors age 60+ and CWRU personnel,
and $15 for general admission. Student discounts are not available for the
November 6 performance. Reservations open on October 4th, and may be made
by calling (216) 368-5246 or online at dance.case.edu/reservations.**Increasing
COVID-19 cases within Northeast Ohio have prompted Case Western Reserve to
resume its requirement that masks be worn indoors. In addition, only those
who are fully vaccinated (two weeks past their final dose) should attend
any campus event. Leaders continue to monitor pandemic developments and may
need to adjust health protocols further as circumstances warrant. In-person
is subject to change based on COVID-19 guidelines.**
