BOUND together Tickets: $18 in advance, $20 at door Info line: 415-273-4633 Available online at www.brownpapertickets.com Two amazing Bay Area dance companies, Aguads da Bahia and Alayo Dance Company come together in BOUND, sharing an evening of dance, music and the joining of the spirit and earthly world. AGUAS DA BAHIA DANCE COMPANY Sagrada / Profana Bahia Tania Santiago draws on her Afro-Brazilian traditions as she weaves together and connects the sacred and the profane in these two pieces, Terra de Todos os Santos - The Land of All Saints and Terra de Felicidade - Land of Happiness. On one side of the coin we celebrate, while simultaneously, on the flip side, we express our faith, respect, and devotion. The sacred is present in everything we do. ALAYO DANCE COMPANY A Piece of White Cloth Ram¨®n Ramos Alayo weaves his Afro- Cuban Folkloric and modern threads into A Piece of White Cloth. He tells a tale of a person searching and struggling for plain white cloth. The journey is viseral, physical and sacred, drawing on the human, ancestor and sprit world. The white cloth is saturated in meaning and power and serves as the salvation and healing. "You can't miss him. He has legs like tree trunks and arm muscles that ripple like lava. When he leaps you think he'll never come down, and his turns suggest the power of a hurricane. He is dancer Ram¨®n Ramos Alayo" - Rita Feliciano, Bay Gaurdian |
