Dancing Off The Wall!

September 30, 2010

What better way to kick off an International Dance Series at the Orange County Performing Arts Center than with breathtaking free performances by one of America’s finest contemporary dance companies, San Francisco-based Project Bandaloop? The astonishing dance company that dances outside on buildings, towers, bridges and skyscrapers, and other atypical dance floors all over the world is returning to the Orange County Performing Arts Center on Thursday, Friday and Saturday with three live shows at 8:30 p.m. Greer’s OCTV has your inside look at both the incredible dancers and musicians who created and performed in this amazing event.

You can watch dancers propel off and across the wall of Segerstrom Hall with two works by the company’s artistic director and founder, Amelia Rudolph: the world premiere of IdEgo, with an original composition and performance by contemporary musician Dana Leong and his band playing from a sculpted perch on the wall; and a re-visioning of a previous piece, retitled The Ninth Second, (from the second movement of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony.

The performances are also part of the Center’s ongoing Free for All Series. Spectators will watch while standing in the Center’s 46,000-square-foot plaza at 600 Town Center Drive in Costa Mesa.
