I?ll be checking out the Bay Area premiere of John Jasperse?s ?CALIFORNIA? tomorrow night at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts. Jasperse, whose heady approach to creating experimental dance environments has generated buzz on the east coast, is still little known out here. This new evening-length work uses a fractured set designed by architect Ammar Eloueini, and five dancers wielding leaf blowers.
If you?re intrigued, Voice of Dance has arranged a two-for-one ticket deal for their newsletter subscribers. Sign up for the email list and you?ll receive frequent alerts to such specials: Last spring I got 50 percent off my ticket to Ballett Frankfurt. Plus you?ll get the heads up when either I or my colleague Allan Ulrich have a new review on the site.
