SWAN SONG
Hiippodrome State Theater
idea and direction - Ani Collier
music - Bach, Chopin, Mozart, Piazzola, Shubert, Saint-Saens, Tchaikovsky
musical arrangement - Kevin MacLeod
The hour long performance mixes musings from Carlos Somoza's novel "Art of Murder" and fragments of Lola Haskins' poetry.
Performed by an international cast of classically and modern trained dancers, a violinist, an actor and a poet, who become a Master, his Assistant, and Works of Art.
Their swan songs embody the beauty, vulnerability and obsession that comes from the dark side of creation.
