The Dance: The Livestream of Brenda Way’s Walk Back the Cat will begin at 6:00 PM PDT
Walk Back the Cat premiered in 2016, and excavates the circuitous journey of the choreographic process and arrives in a world inspired by Thomas Hart Benton’s muscular and vital murals of American City Life in the 1930s.
Including visuals by photographer RJ Muna and video by Ian Winters, the work features a commissioned jazz-inspired score and live performance by Paul Dresher and musicians.
