Open Rehearsal for OrganWorks “Drifting Camel Bird
The creative process of contemporary dance will be open to the public. Contemporary dance is diversifying into various forms. What you could not understand just by going to see a performance, you may be able to interpret from a new angle when you watch it based on the creative process.
We hope you will experience the choreographer’s real voice and creation with the dancers.
