DANCECleveland presents Inbal Pinto & Avshalom Pollak Dance
Company
Makes Its Ohio Debut
The internationally acclaimed Israeli troupe Inbal Pinto & Avshalom
Pollak Dance Company will make its Ohio
premiere when it takes the stage at PlayhouseSquare for two performances
Saturday, January 28th, 2012 8:00 pm
Sunday, January 29th, 2012 3:00 pm
Presented by DANCECleveland
Sponsored by the Jewish Federation's Cleveland Israel Arts Connection
From the innovative minds of Israeli choreographer Inbal Pinto
and director Avshalom Pollak comes Oyster, a magical and mysterious
work that combines the dreamlike qualities of Fellini and the keen
intellect of Pina Bausch. Enter a fantastic circus-world of wandering
street acrobats and oddly beautiful creatures. Performers and dancers
in doll-like make-up, spiky blonde wigs, and tutus alternately become
puppets or puppeteers. The unique movement combines ballet, contemporary,
mime and acrobatics in an unforgettable, magical evening.
Inbal Pinto & Avshalom Pollak Dance Company was founded in
1992 and has toured the globe to critical acclaim. The company consists
of 12 dancer/actors working among various artistic disciplines to
create new work informed by memories, longings, ideas and imagination.
Tickets starting at $15 can be
purchased by calling 216-241-6000 or

CARMEN
February 10 - 11 & 17 - 18, 2012 | Aronoff Center for the Arts
Choreography: Amedeo Amodio
Music: Georges Bizet, performed by the Cincinnati Ballet Orchestra
French musician Georges Bizet composed the melodic score that is
replete with familiar favorites from this famous opera that will
accompany the ballet and will be played live by the Cincinnati Ballet
Orchestra. Italian choreographer Amedeo Amodio choreographed the
theatrical and gutsy story of a brash beauty who fiercely guards
her independence and the two men obsessed with possessing her. The
movement is framed by large scenic moving panels that shift with
mood and scene changes, all lit by special effects and prescient
shadows. The costuming is a blend of classic and contemporary lines
where strict military discipline contrasts the sensual swirl of
Spanish skirts Amodio's renowned, bold and sweeping style bring
scenic design, special lighting and brazen storytelling into a coalesced
triumph.
