This Week at New York Live Arts Features Carlos Soto and Ellen Robbins

Live Feed in Process with Carlos Soto & Andrea Kleine, and Dances by Very Young Choreographers.

CARLOS J. SOTO
Live Feed In-process: EVERYTHING, ALRIGHT: an epic nothing

Everything Alright follows the dissolution of a community faced with the intrusion of a visitor. The piece revolves around seemingly infinite variations of views and values centered on a traumatic event as perceived by a group of people, overlaying their various experiences so that events are distinguished as a plurality of moments prolonged and collapsed into each other; adopting elements of the fantastic and tropes of threatening foreignness threading aspects of 1950s science fiction via a modern-day parable of liberation spiraling into madness, to explore those moments when we are wholly present, and those in which we are wholly elsewhere.

DANCES BY
VERY YOUNG CHOREOGRAPHERS

For over 20 years, Ellen Robbins has worked with young dancers from ages 5 to 18, helping them to stretch their technical modern dance skills and their imaginations in a warm and supportive atmosphere where improvisation reigns. The works in Dances by Very Young Choreographers can be humorous, dramatic, lyrical, or abstract, but always entertaining. This showcase of young talent has become one of New York Live Arts' most beloved community programs, and is a not to be missed opportunity to inspire children by exposing them to live performances created and performed by their peers.

Andrea Kleine
My Dinner With Andrea: The Piece Formerly Known As Torture Playlist

Andrea Kleine's new work began as a dance about the music deployed in the CIA's torture program. In despair, Kleine abandoned that idea and channeled theater shaman André Gregory from his 1981 film My Dinner with André, creating a new version of the famed dinner conversation as she seeks answers on how to make a dance about torture, or how to make anything at all. The piece emerges as an amalgam of fragments: fractures of complicity, futility, and desire.
