The Earth and Artists Responding to Violence:
Dance and Music Celebrate FotoFest’s Dual Themed 2006 Biennial

March 24, 2006

The Michele Brangwen Dance Ensemble, in association with FotoFest, presents an evening of contemporary dance and music that celebrates the Festival’s 2006 Biennial themes: The Earth and Artists Responding to Violence. The performance is Friday, March 24 at 8:00 p.m. at Zilkha Hall, Hobby Center. The evening features a performance of Black Rain, a work by choreographer Michele Brangwen and composer Thomas Helton, that explores the dark poetry of rain by looking back to the fallout at two Ground Zeros -- Hiroshima after the bomb, and the destruction of Lower Manhattan after the 9/11 attacks -- with a cautionary look into the future under radioactive world leadership.
