Summation Dance presents its Second Annual New York City Season featuring the World Premiere of Deep End, choreographed by Sumi Clements and produced by Taryn Vander Hoop, from Thursday - Saturday, March 8-10, 2012 at 7:30pm at the Baryshnikov Arts Center, 450 West 37th Street, NYC. Tickets are $20 ($12 for students) and are available at www.smarttix.com or by phone at 212-868-4444.
Deep End casts its audience into the depths of a fishbowl, imagined anew and harboring the illustrious, yet formidable, New York City. Drawing upon this metaphor, the work explores the ideas of confinement, self-awareness, co-habitation in an environment constantly in flux, and the insatiable quest to achieve. Seen through the female perspective, ten women transform the stage into a myriad world in which failure and success are fundamentally equal in a place whose inhabitants seem to ignore the futility of it all.
