ODC/Dance, San Francisco's internationally acclaimed contemporary dance company, presents its spring season with three new works: Breathing Underwater, by ODC Founder and Artistic Director Brenda Way, is a dance for four women set to live music by popular avant cellist and composer Zoe Keating, well known for using a foot-controlled laptop to record layer upon layer of sound. Cut Out Guy, by ODC Co-Artistic Director KT Nelson, is a work for five male dancers featuring music by experimental composer Ben Frost, exploring the relationship between internal and external self. Nelson's Transit, in collaboration with San Francisco bicycle artist Max Chen, is a full-company work celebrating the chaotic pulse of our urban centers. Three additional works round out the season: Raking Light (2002), choreographed by Brenda Way, along with her Part of a Longer Story (2006), choreographed over seven years and set to Mozart's concerto for clarinet and orchestra. ODC Associate Choreographer Kimi Okada's work, I look vacantly at the Pacific...though regret (2011) completes the set. The season is broken into two programs showcasing different performances.

I'm in a wheelchair and the staff was amazing in providing me with a wonderful seat. I was with 5 friends, all who loved the show, too. What an accomplishment of dexterity, beauty, gorgeous costumes, acrobatics, lighting, music and song. Thank you for letting us know about this fantastic show!Written on Aug 18 2008
