THE MUSES
REDCAT, Los Angeles, CA
The Muses envisions the nine classical figures as goddesses in contemporary Los Angeles. A suite of dances is woven with spoken text combining the myth of Sappho on a beach in Lesbos with musings on a life lived on a beach in Malibu. The work was supported generously by GuestHaus Residency.
