SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 2017 8PM – 9:30PM
THE GRANDEL THEATRE 3610 Grandel Square, St. Louis, MO 63108
We can talk about dance as being luscious, full-bodied, and elegant, or light, crisp, and lively just as we would describe a certain wine, a piece of music, or a delicious flavor.
Karlovsky & Company Dance connects these sensory experiences through a progressive performance of site-specific dance playfully paired with live music, culinary treats, and wines matched with the qualities of movement, music, theme, and environment.
Joining the dancers of Karlovsky & Company Dance are musicians: Mo Egeston (piano), Harvey Lockhart (saxophone), Lance Garger (percussion), Tory Z Starbuck (electronics), and Kalo Hoyle (bass).
Wine pairings and culinary treats by Chef Samantha Pretto of the Dark Room at the Grandel!
