THE RITE OF SPRING
June 15 - July 8
Music by IGOR STRAVINSKY
Choreographer - LAURA GUTIERREZ
Director - MATT HUNE
DANCE
The limits of group responsibility are tested in a new dance adaptation set to Stravinsky’s iconic score. Laura Gutierrez, named one of Dance Magazine’s “25 to Watch,” teams up with Rec Room’s Matt Hune to repurpose an unapologetically primitive exploration that examines how modern America assimilates, worships, and sacrifices.
Featuring CLAIRE DOMENIC-SMITH, SARAH GOWDY, AMELIA HERNANDEZ, AMY ODEN, MAYA PARKER, and EMMA SINGLETON

"In 40 minutes, Rite delivered a much needed infusion of hope. We were left with a “something happened here” feeling for sure. Exactly what, we couldn’t all agree on. Audience members lingered hoping to get a glimpse of the performers. This was a Rite for right now."
