BAC presents

German choreographer Raimund Hoghe

Up next this fall, BAC presents German choreographer Raimund Hoghe performing his duet with Japanese dancer Takashi Ueno, offering a new, minimalist interpretation of the crowning moment of the 19th century virtuoso classical ballet -- the pas de deux. Drawing from the art form's array of gestures, the work explores duality in mirrored movements rooted in the backgrounds and cultures of both dancers.   Raimund Hoghe   Pas de Deux (U.S. Premiere)  Oct 10 - 12 (Wed - Fri / 7:30PM)  -  Tix 0 / 866 811 4111             Co-presented with the French Institute Alliance Française (FIAF)'s Crossing the Line 2012.   Photo by Rosa Frank FROM OUR FRIENDS  DOG DAYS at Peak Performances          A world premiere opera from composer David T.
