Aszure Barton & Artists
Boston Debut
November 4 & 5, Tsai Performance Center
Friday, 7:30pm
Saturday, 8pm
Canadian choreographer Aszure Barton is one of the most in-demand choreographers in modern dance. A Baryshnikov protégé, Barton was the first choreographer in the Baryshnikov Dance Center and has created works for American Ballet Theatre, Nederlands Dans Theater, Les Ballets Jazz de Montréal, and Hubbard Street Dance Chicago. Her work is eclectic and has an uninhibited intensity that caused one critic to write, “Aszure Barton makes dance like no one else.” Program includes two hauntingly beautiful Boston premiere works, Busk and Blue Soup.
"Barton makes dance that moves through the body like a firecracker. It’s an unstoppable explosion of amazing, full-out movement that feels fresh and unique.”
—The Globe and Mail (Toronto)
