Commedia and the Dance is a look at The New and Curious School of Theatrical Dancing collection of comic dances inspired by Gregorio Lambranzi in Germany and published in 1716. Have you seen a Blindfolded Juggler or a man with three legs? Can one create a dance with spoons, goblets and plates? If you are curious, please join us on October 20th at NAC with four members of The New York Baroque Dance Company and live music. Bringing to the stage, choreography by Catherine Turocy inspired by Lambrazi’s descriptions, will be a unique experience sure to delight.
