Ephrat Asherie Dance presents "Odeon"

Dancers of EAD shown in motion and laughing Matthew Murphy

Choreographer Ephrat Asherie brings a high-energy, hybrid work that layers breaking, hip-hop, house,  and vogue.  With musical direction by Asherie’s brother, jazz pianist, Ehud Asherie, Odeon reimagines signature compositions of 20th-century Brazilian composer Ernesto Nazareth, noted for melding classical music with Afro-Brazilian rhythms. Featuring a group of dynamic dancers accompanied by live music, Odeon creates an entirely original world bringing together the extended family of street and club dances and challenging them to inhabit new spatial contexts.

Streaming On-Demand Thursday, April 15 at 8pm ET through Wednesday, April 28 at 11:59pm ET
