DanceNOW[NYC] presents David Parker and The Bang Group's SHOW DOWN, With Silent Hosts: Monica Bill Barnes and Deborah Lohse
JUNE 4 at 7:30, 5 at 9:30 and 6 at 7:30 & 9:30 PM, , $20 in advance / $25 at the door
DanceNOW [NYC] is pleased to present a return engagement of David Parker and The Bang Group's ShowDown as part of Dancemopolitan at Joe's Pub. ShowDown, set to many of the songs featured in Irving Berlin's music comedy classic, Annie Get Your Gun, works with a series of beautiful recordings made by Judy Garland and Howard Keel for the 1949 MGM film version of the Broadway show (with Garland eventually replaced by Betty Hutton). ShowDown takes the songs out of their original narrative context and places them in a wholly contemporary, choreographic world, unraveling with freewheeling and anarchic vigor the musical's themes of a show down between the sexes, the lure of show business and the juncture of love and ambition.
