Buglisi Dance Theatre + 150 dancers
Buglisi Dance Theatre is honored to be welcomed by Lincoln Center for the ninth presentation of "The Table of Silence Project 9/11," a public tribute to 9/11 and prayer for peace, conceived and choreographed by Jacqulyn Buglisi.
Buglisi Dance Theatre will lead an ensemble of 150+ dancers in this performance ritual for peace, which begins at 8:15 AM and concludes precisely at 8:46 AM, the time that American Airlines Flight 11 crashed into the North Tower. Artistic collaborators include Italian visual artist Rossella Vasta, acclaimed for her "Table of Silence" sculpture; Terese Capucilli, Virginie Mecene, and musicians on voice, percussion, bells, conch, and flutes.
Choreographer Jacqulyn Buglisi, a passionate descendant of Martha Graham, moves us with sublime images that touch the heart and embrace the soul. The award-winning Buglisi Dance Theatre is acclaimed for its magnificent dancers, sublime theatricality and cutting-edge collaborations. Using literature, poetry, and heroic archetypes, Buglisi crafts dances on the human condition that promote social justice and awareness of global issues.
Admission is free, however an RSVP is required at nationalartsclub.eventbrite.com.
