/in , /by

Goldstar is offering super discounted tickets to this weekend’s performances of  La Cathedrale Engloutie and Ancient Air at the Cowles Center for Dance.  Choose from Saturday evening and Sunday matinee times.  Tickets are free + a $7 service fee (Reg. $26).

As part of its 50th Anniversary season, Minnesota Dance Theatre presents a repertory concert featuring the regional premiere of master choreographer Jirí Kylián’s La Cathedrale Engloutie (The Sunken Cathedral), with music by Claude Debussy mixed with the sounds of waves breaking on a shore. This wild quartet for two men and two women showcases the flexibility, concentration and strength of the dancers, as they clash in a confrontation between control and free will. The evening also includes a restaging of Loyce Houlton’s Ancient Air, with music by George Crumb (including a cycle of songs on texts by Garcia Lorca), and the reprise of Lise Houlton’s playful Point of Departure, set to music by Franz Joseph Haydn.
