Under the artistic direction of Benoit-Swan Pouffer, Cedar Lake has amassed one of the most diverse repertoires in contemporary dance. Tuplet is a pulsating work for six dancers choreographed by Alexander Ekman posing the question, what is rhythm? Set to a score created in collaboration with the dancers own rhythmic impulses and using their bodies as percussion, the soundscape is integrated with electronic music composed by Mikael Karlsson. Hofesh Shechter's Violet Kid examines man's struggle for harmony within a complex and often horrifying universe. Performed by all 16 dancers,Shechter's original score features recorded audio text performed by the choreographer. Running time: 2hrs
