The Four Seasons imagines an American community in the not-too-distant future, as the practical reality of climate change seeps in and the people adapt as best they can, shedding layer after layer as Roz G, an increasingly frantic cable news weather anchor, attempts to preside over the chaos.
The work is set to Antonio Vivaldi’s Le quattro stagioni and punctuated with original weather reports written by playwright David Zellnik, The Four Seasons is a dance theater narrative conceived, directed and choreographed by Chase Brock and made its world premiere at Joyce SoHo in May 2008
“It’s hard to find a new take on Vivaldi’s overfamiliar score, but Mr. Brock manages it, constructing an apocalyptic scenario of climate change that is both entertaining and disturbing.” – The New York Times
