On October 6, SCPAF attended the sjDANCEco Shakespeare Dances performance at the California Theatre in San Jose.
Wow!
The group's artistic representation of classic Shakespeare plays was absolutely beautiful. They started with Othello, moved into Macbeth, on to Hamlet and ended with Romeo and Juliet before pausing to prepare three world premiere performances, Keyed, Fire The Grid, and Beneath the Visiting Moon.
After intermission, the company premiered The Moor's Pavane (variations on the theme of Othello).
Not only was the company's movement incredible (a mix of classical ballet and modern dance), but the costumes were visually stunning, particularly during The Moor's Pavane. Pauline Lawrence Limon (costumes) really paid attention to color combinations by mixing a bold violet-red, subtle white, a pleasing orange, and a yellow-orange costume to tie everything together. Simply stunning.
Members of the SCPAF mailing list were able to take advantage of a special offer for the Friday or Saturday night performance. Join our mailing list to find out how you can be part of our next great promotion.
