"Les Noces"

"Marriage is not about happiness, marriage is about transformation."
-- Joseph Campbell

Les Noces - The Wedding, is a sexually charged deconstruction of the marriage ritual. Provocative movement and unabashed energy permeate strong structural composition.


Costumes and lighting for Les Noces were underwritten by Judy S. Gordon. Additional support provided by the Kenneth French Fund for New Works. Les Noces was developed while in residence at the Kaatsbaan International Dance Center and funded in part with a New York State Residency grant from the New York State Council on the Arts.
