Abduction into a sensual and dramatic multiverse
In this intense evening of dance, stories, images and dramatic arcs overlap. Events between lovers, friends, family members, generations, individuals are revealed. We experience intimate confrontations in ambiguous spaces: waiting rooms, memories or prophetic dream places. Bobbi Jene Smith, celebrated from Los Angeles to New York and Paris to Tel Aviv as a rising star in the choreographer's sky, creates exclusively for Ballett Basel. The music is composed by Celeste Oram as a commissioned work for Basel.
Meet Bobbi Jene Smith, the rising star of the dance world, at two lecture-performances. In a series of up-close encounters that give a unique insight into the artist's work and processes.
