ÁGUA VIVA
Choreographed and performed by Jodi Melnick & Maya Lee-Parritz
Inspired by Água Viva (1973) by Clarice Lispector

Melnick is “one of the most beautiful dancers there ever was—full of delicacy, lucidity, sensuality, mystery, and ferocity, which gives her an indelible sense of drama” – Gia Kourlas, DANCE Magazine

A homage to Ukrainian-born Brazilian writer Clarice Lispector’s extraordinary feminist novel, choreographer and dancer Jodi Melnick and collaborator Maya Lee-Parritz’s duo Água Viva expands upon Lispector’s notions of virtuosity, sexuality, and the spectacular, probing the limits of spontaneity through intricate movement.

Performed at Hudson Hall, New York State's oldest surviving theater in Hudson, New York - a direct 2hr train ride from NYC. No car needed!
