April 13, 2019 @ 7:30 PM - 10:30 PM
Bodies of Light at the Glass Crescent
A collaboration of exciting and ethereal movement, music, costuming and video effects at one of Houston’s most intriguing architectural spaces.
On April 13, 2019, eight dance artists will become Bodies of Light, a powerful and surreal performance exploring intersections of biology, technology and spirituality. Inspired by the transcendent environment–visionary HIVE founder Nestor Topchy’s beautiful Glass Crescent studio–Rebecca French Choreography will incorporate elements of Japanese Butoh and contemporary dance with both orchestral/electronic music and video projection-mapping. This free performance is one night only and not to be missed.
