Monchichi by Company Wang Ramirez at BAM
- Oct 12, 2016 at 3:30pm to Oct 15, 2016 at 5:30pm EDT
- Location: The Brooklyn Academy of Music
- Description:
For its NY premiere, Company Wang Ramirez present Monchichi on Oct 12 - 15 at BAM.
On a bare stage with nothing but a single wooden tree, Monchichi grows out of the spaces between the two dancers’ hybrid cultures and the movement idioms in which they’re trained: ballet, b-boying, and martial arts. Confronting paradoxes of love and difference with trademark clarity and wit, they perform a choreography of near-missed connection.
Intercultural identities are the bread and butter of Wang Ramirez, the polyglot performance duo comprising Korean-German dancer Honji Wang and French-Spanish dancer Sébastien Ramirez. Partners in life and performance since they met dancing in Berlin, the two communicate the complexity of human relationships through their signature dance-theater aesthetic.
The performances are part of the Brooklyn/Paris Exchange and Tandem Paris-New York, presented by BAM and Théâtre de la Ville (France).

- Location: Baryshnikov Arts Center - Jerome Robbins Theater
- Description:
Two of Ouramdane’s longtime collaborators —Lora Juodkaite and Annie Hanauer— perform lonely solos in a haunting duet. Intensely physical performances of hypnotic, whirling gestures foreground the specificity of each woman’s body as she paints a raw, captivating self-portrait. Compelling in its repetition, Ouramdane’s choreography pushes the performers to find the gesture that makes them who they are.
Before the Saturday, October 15 performance Rachid Ouramdane joins arts leaders from both sides of the Atlantic to share strategies for effecting change in a panel discussion at 5pm. Part of BRIDGING: A French-American Dialogue on Diversity and Inclusion in the Arts, an initiative supported by The Edmond de Rothschild Foundations. Free with RSVP.
