Thursday, August 14, 2008
Springfield Metro area -Kacico Dance, Kansas City Contemporary Dance, presents Light, Movement, Shadow, Sound at Coger Theatre in Craig Hall on the MSU Campus.
The performance is sponsored by the MSU Department of Theatre and Dance and is a free event.
Light, Movement, Shadow, Sound, is a contemporary dance treat as light and shadow become partners with movement and sound. Flashlights in the audience, sounds in the dark, and dancers revealed and concealed are just the beginning of the theatrical innovations of Kacico Dance choreographers Michelle Brown, Lindsay Spilker Tate, Shandi Miller along with guest choreographer Rebecca Bryant and composer, Don Nichols, both formerly from Missouri State University and currently at Purdue University. Light, Movement Shadow, Sound is the culmination of a process that included working with modules of movement, minimal lighting, a black and white color scheme, and original sound scores including one created from the sounds of tap shoes used in an unconventional manner. Section titles include Wednesday Evening, Lunar Moth, The John, Under My Bed, and Vectors.
Among the talented cast of dancers is Julie DeLancey-Rudolph, a graduate of MSU’s Department of Theatre and Dance who is in her fourth season with Kacico Dance. Also performing with the company is Justin Hundley, a current student in MSU’s Department of Theatre of Dance. Justin interned with Kacico this summer and guest performed with the company in the premier of Light, Movement, Shadow, Sound at the Kansas City Fringe Festival.
Kacico Dance, a company of 9 spectacular dancers, always promises amazingly refreshing creativity and fun. Don’t miss this performance.
