Colorful World - 5/8/2008
In 1988, the world discovered a man who was indestructible, impervious to pain, and able to destroy a tank with his mind.
In the early- to mid-nineties, a craze where vigilantes dressed up in flashy costumes and fought crime took the nation by storm.
Now it's 2005. The Twin Towers of the World Trade Center are still standing. Hurricane Katrina has decimated New Orleans. The Iraq War is coming to a close. And several former costumed crimefighters realize their marks on the world are more akin to those of has-been rock stars.
This is "Colorful World," Nosedive Productions' latest full-length production that takes on the superhero genre. Far from a pulpy comic book-style romp, James Comtois and Pete Boisvert ("The Adventures of Nervous-Boy") envision a world radically changed by the arrival of an invincible man, and not necessarily for the better.
"Colorful World" will be performed at the 78th Street Theatre Lab (236 West 78th St. at Broadway) May 8-10, 15-17, 22-24, 29-31 (Thursday through Saturday). All shows are at 8 p.m. and tickets are $18. Subway: 1 to 79th Street; A to 81st Street; or 1 2 or 3 to 72nd Street. For tickets go here: http://www.theatermania.com/content/show.cfm/show/142889

The Judgment of Paris - 5/9/2008
LUST, LOVE, AND TRAGEDY
COMPANY XIV TO PRESENT THE WORLD PREMIERE OF THE JUDGMENT OF PARIS, AN INTOXICATING FEAST FOR THE SENSES
Featuring French Can Can Girls, Greek Tragedy, Golden Apples, Baroque Pageantry, Courtesans, Goddesses, Circus Freaks, Blonde Bombshells, Spartan Warriors and Helen of Troy…
Company XIV is proud to present the World Premiere of The Judgment of Paris, an erotically charged show with a unique fusion of dance, theater and music, choreographed and directed by Austin McCormick. McCormick currently performs with the Metropolitan Opera Ballet of New York. Performances run May 9 - 31, 2008 in a limited engagement at 303 Bond Street (between Union & Sackett) in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn.
"McCormick's unique choreographic style fuses Baroque, Ballet, Theater and Contemporary Dance" ~ Dance Spirit Magazine/Sara Cann
The show plays Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm. Tickets are $20 for adults and $15 for students and can be purchased online at http://www.SmartTix.com or by calling 212-868-4444. For more information on Company XIV and to view a tantalizing trailer visit http://www.CompanyXIV.com.
Inspired by the Greek myth "The Judgment of Paris", in which the first ever beauty contest occurred, and informed by the stage directions of the Baroque Opera, The Judgment of Paris, by John Weaver, Company XIV tells an epic story of lust, love, and tragedy, illustrating the events that lead to Paris' fateful decision to award Aphrodite the golden apple in exchange for Helen of Troy. This decision launched the Trojan War, resulting in years of blood shed and catastrophe.
The Judgment of Paris explores archetypes prevalent in Greek literature, tracing them through history, equating Helen of Troy (the first blonde bombshell) to other blondes throughout time…Marilyn, Marlene, Brigitte Bardot, etc. Humorous interludes, supplied by Offenbach's comic opera La Belle Helene, tantalize throughout the evening. Equal parts classical, contemporary, historical, and pop art, The Judgment of Paris defies easy categorization. The show is an official entry of the 2008 Edinburgh Fringe in Scotland.
The show includes music by Marlene Dietrich (Blonde Women, Maybe I'll Come Back, Look Me Over Closely), Arvo Part (Cactus in Memory of Benjamin Britten, Stabat Matter), Giovanni Battista Pergolesi (Quando Corpus), Antonio Vivaldi (Cum Dederit Dilectis Suis Somnum) and Jacques Offenbach (La Belle Helene).
"McCormick's Noveau Baroque is dangerously stylish" ~ Santa Barbara Independent (CA)
Company XIV is a non-profit mixed media dance/theater company based in Brooklyn, New York. Founded by Artistic Director Austin McCormick in 2005, the company works in the mediums of live dance/theater and film. Company XIV is contemporary, yet baroque inspired, with a mission to produce compelling theatrical dance productions that create a beautiful affecting experience. Company XIV is the resident company of 303 Bond St., a 3,800 square foot performance/rehearsal venue. The space was converted from a tow truck warehouse to a theater, with the addition of a State of the art dance floor, glass façade and theatrical lighting.
Austin McCormick's work has been performed at Lincoln Center's Peter Jay Sharp Theater, Alice Tully Hall, Clark Studio Theater, and James and Martha Duffy Performance Space at the Mark Morris Dance Center in New York. His unique blend of Baroque vocabulary in conjunction with contemporary movements and theatrical staging is commanding attention. In 2007, he was the recipient of the Susan Braun Award, a grant given to one young choreographer/filmmaker by Dance Films Association, supporting new choreography for the camera. Subsequently, his dance film Folies d'Espagne premiered at the Walter Reade Cinema in Lincoln Center in January 2008 and has been selected/screened at Galerie Michel Journiac in Paris/France, the Wisconsin Film Festival, Circle Cinema Oklahoma, Film Fest Reload (Staten Island), and CineDans International Film Festival in Amsterdam. Dawn Lille of Art Times called the film "a rich, sensual and beautifully costumed work inspired by Baroque dance."
Austin was commissioned by the New York Baroque Dance Company in 2007 to create a new work involving artists from both Company XIV and NYBDC. He graduated in 2006 with a BFA from the Juilliard School and trained in Baroque Court dance from the age of eight with dance historian Régine Astier at the Conservatory of Baroque Dance, from which he graduated with Honors. Austin is an alumnus of North Carolina School of the Arts and the Harid Conservatory where he studied Classical Ballet.
