50 Years of Being a Foreigner:
Special Screening and Activation
Chicago Cultural Center Claudia Cassidy Theater
May 9, 11:30 a.m. - 1 p.m. | 78 E. Washington St., 2nd Floor North
On May 9 at Chicago Cultural Center Claudia Cassidy Theater, Eiko will present a multi-media event that combines dance, video projection, and storytelling. She will share her five decades of an artist’s journey in America that began in May 1976. She considers herself an eternal “foreigner” and a performance maker, not a choreographer or a dancer. Videos she edited and prepared for this presentation will include seminal works by Eiko & Koma, her solos in public sites, and her recent collaborations.
