A TRIBUTE TO MERCE By Tacita Dean 10/23/09 I am in the unique position of still being able to work with Merce Cunningham. I encounter him daily, listening to him and taking my cues from him, as I spend my summer cutting the film we decided to make together last year...

Admission: $18 ($12 for members)


"...meticulously put together and utterly endearing, Mr. Malvacias cultivates a poetic, mature landscape of male camaraderie that is full of unexpected twists."
- The New York Times


In JA!! choreographer... and visual artist Luis Lara Malvacías explores his long fascination with laughter along with his creative team: dancer Manuel Alfonso Pérez Torres, composer and performer Ivo Bol and advisor Jeremy Nelson. This group of "laugh researchers" investigates the physical repercussions of mirth along with the therapeutic manifestations. Their findings are translated into a movement vocabulary that positions the performers as physical conduits between source and audience within Malvacías' interactive installation.

Lighting design by Kathy Kaufmann.


JA!! is made possible, in part, with funds from the 2009-2010 Danspace Project Commissioning Initiative with support from individuals who have contributed to Danspace Project's Creation Fund. JA!! is also made possible in part by a direct grant from the Jerome Foundation. The piece is co-produced by Sasha Waltz & Guest and radialsystem V, in the context of "Choreographen der Zukunft", a career development program sponsored in part by BASF SE.
