About this Event
Motion State Arts presents Heidi Henderson / Elephant JANE Dance’s untitled sad piece, a contemporary dance work, performed in a roller skating rink, set to songs by the 1970s super duo The Carpenters.
Examining the sensation of a sinking heart, featuring quiet solos, touching duets, and a wild burst of galumphing, dancers respond to the deep sadness in the grain of Karen Carpenter’s voice, initiate from the dancers’ hearts, and find tenderness. The cast includes phenomenal dance artists Sara Gibbons (NY), Tristan Koepke (ME), Edward Rice (NY), Christina Jane Robson (DC) and Henderson.
This very special performance will occur at United Skates of America in Rumford, RI, a beloved skating rink minutes from downtown Providence. You're encouraged to dress in 1970s-era clothing and stay after the show to skate!
Doors open: 6:30pm
Performance: 7:00pm
Skating Session: 8:00pm (optional; add'l fee; 18+)
