Open Stage: Contemporary Dance “Brother”, “Story of B” by Dance Theater CHANG Friday, January 17, 2014 at 7PM Gallery Korea, Korean Cultural Service in New York

Dance Theater CHANG was created in South Korea in 2006. In two choreographies – each of them created for two dancers – persons meet and demand everything from each other. In the course of these highly physical works, Namjin Kim sounds out moments of individual desperation, yet allows space for change and utopia. Dance Theater CHANG aims to make dance works that are more realistic and factual, rather than displaying abstract images, by adding theatrical aspects. They create unique Korean contemporary dance theatre works that show power but calm movements. “Brother” is dedicated to Kim’s relationship with his own, disabled brother, who is with him on stage. “Story of B” starts off with an encounter with a beggar in London. Admission is free, but RSVP is required.
