AUSTYN RICH AT REDCAT

One of the highlights of the recently concluded New Original Works Festival 2019 was BL**DY SPAGHETTI, a performance piece by Austyn Rich for two dancers.

Partnering with Alvaro Montelongo—Rich’s fellow graduate of the inaugural class of USC’s Glorya Kaufman School of Dance—the performers diagram an encounter between sailors in opposition, communicating desire and fear through anguished movement and deferred symmetries.

The music for BL**DY SPAGHETTI is by Cody Perkins, and the wardrobe by Pierre of No Sesso.*

See “Warm Bodies, No Sesso—The Art of Pierre Davis.” PARIS LA 16 (2018): 136–143.

KATHERINE HELEN FISHER AND ANDREW ONDREJCAK

As part of Week One of Redcat’s New Original Works Festival 2019, choreographer Katherine Helen Fisher and visual artist Andrew Ondrejcak present THE MUSES.

“Pulsating to the imagistic nature of Helado Negro’s cosmic synth-folk sounds, THE MUSES renders a suite of lush and riotous dances that conjures a communal space in celebration of the divine feminine.”*
