The Rebecca Davis Dance Company

May 7 - 8, 2010
At the Suzanne Roberts Theatre

Braving the New World
The world premiere of this contemporary dance piece evokes the clash of conformity and human individuality, inspired by literary classics like Brave New World, 1984, and Fahrenheit 451. Based on the imagined worlds of authors like Aldous Huxley and George Orwell, the Rebecca Davis Dance Company explores these issues of societal control vs. individual freedom. This professional ensemble is choreographed by Rebecca Davis using her innovative style of dance, drama, and narrative.

Performances

VIP (6pm - $25)

Watch dancers of the Rebecca Davis Dance Company take warm up ballet class on stage followed by a presentation from a literary guest speaker about the ballet's theme of totalitarianism.

Performance (8pm - $25)

In this contemporary ballet world, human beings are manufactured in test tubes and live in a world of mechanization, conformity and obedience. All the while, Big Brother is watching. Only one individual is ready to fight the regime and seek true love.
