Jessica Lang Dance Presenting Series
"In Lang's choreography, less is more, and movement evolved naturally out of relationships." —The Boston Globe
Jessica Lang, a former member of Twyla Tharp's company, has created an extraordinary visual and sensory experience—her production of Giovanni Battista Pergolesi’s 1736 Stabat Mater (There Stands the Mother)—Mary’s grief at the crucifixion of Jesus. After intermission, the award-winning choreographer/artistic director seamlessly incorporates striking design elements and classical ballet vocabulary into two more artfully crafted, emotionally riveting, contemporary works—The Calling and Thousand Yard Stare.
