Diavolo Dance Theater
PRESS RELEASE: "The L.A. Contemporary Dance Company (LACDC) will be returning to the Diavolo Dance Theater the first two weekends of May to unveil new work by LACDC Artistic Director Kate Hutter and three incredible L.A. based choreographers -- Nehara Kalev of the wife and husband reality based performance group Catch Me Bird, Seth Zibalese of Diavolo Dance Theater and Boogiezone teacher series, and Genevieve Carson, company member of LACDC and recent showcase choreographer. The work is diverse and visually spectacular, incorporating theatrical elements such as playing cards, packing peanuts and furniture to heighten our sense of reality, while simultaneously placing us in the imagined worlds of the choreographers, and tipping these seemingly natural environments on their side."
