MAHAWAY: SPRING ETERNAL
May 29th, 2013, 8pm, Brooklyn, NY
 

In commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the Paris premiere of Igor Stravinsky’s and Vaslav Nijinsky’s The Rite of Spring, attend a live performance of music and dance with the ACB Dance Company world premiere of MAHAWAY: SPRING ETERNAL, based on a Mayan folktale and set to a newly written Stravinsky-inspired musical score that will be performed live by the musical ensemble TENTH INTERVENTION.

The show will take place in Brooklyn, New York at the Schermerhorn Theater on May 29th, 2013; that’s right, the exact 100th anniversary date (we kept it real!). We will be having a post-performance celebratory reception with a mix of Stravinsky’s best scores playing in the background. It’s going to be a night filled with honoring dance and musical history, supporting and promoting contemporary composers and choreographers, and celebrating the dance community at-large…in the amazing one-of-a-kind borough of Brooklyn!
