Vanguard @ RDT (SLC: Oct 6-8)

Vanguard | October 6-8, 2011
Jeanné Wagner Theatre | 7:30 pm

RDT presents the revolutionary, world renowned choreography of Merce Cunningham and Yvonne Rainer, America's groundbreaking leaders of the Avant-Garde and Post-modern dance movement.

Cunningham's Scramble (1968) is a "masterwork" with sets by Frank Stella and music by Toshi Ichiyanagi.

Yvonne Rainer's Trio A (1966) and Chair Pillow (1969) embraced Duchamp and the Dadaists, Pop Art and Minimalism and offered an entirely new mode of dance that violated nearly every cannon of classic dance convention.

*Saturday, Oct 8: Pre-concert lecture:
From Dada to the Avant–Garde 6:45-7:20
for members of RDT’s Sapphire Club. Rose Rm.
