Heidi Henderson / Elephant Jane Dance — untitled sad piece
Heidi Henderson / Elephant Jane Dance presents the Rhode Island premiere of untitled sad piece, set to the music of The Carpenters on Thursday, November 7 at 7:00pm at United Skates of America in Rumford, Rhode Island. Examining the sensation of a sinking heart, featuring quiet solos, touching duets, and a wild burst of galumphing, dancers respond to the deep sadness in the grain of Karen Carpenter’s voice, initiate from the dancers’ hearts, and find tenderness. The cast includes phenomenal dance artists Sara Gibbons (NY), Tristan Koepke (ME), Edward Rice (NY), Christina Jane Robson (DC) and Henderson.
This singular performance takes place in the roller rink at United Skates of America, a beloved skating rink in Rumford, Rhode Island. Audience members are encouraged to dress in 1970’s attire and can skate after the show, for an additional fee.
