ABOUT THE WORKS
These very special performances will feature three new dance works, including GroundWorks Founding Artistic Director David Shimotakahara's tribute to the music of jazz great Thelonious Monk, company Artist in Residence, Antonio Brown's latest to an original music and sound collage, and the commissioned work "The Sixth" by Seattle-based guest choreographer Olivier Wevers set to original music by American composer Philip Daniel. The piece is about stripping away the layers of distraction in our daily lives to rediscover our true selves and inner peace. Learn more about Olivier and his creative process HERE.
