The Set Up is an eight-part dance series made by choreographers Wally Cardona and Jennifer Lacey and an international assembly of eight master dance-artists of a traditional form. This sixth installment of The Set Up began in Mandalay, Myanmar, with Saya Lei (aka U Than Aung), a 70-year-old master who has devoted his life to preserving the Mandalay-style of Burmese classical dance. Original sound score by Jonathan Bepler.
LMCC is a lead commissioner of The Set Up.
