An Answerless Riddle (2016)

An Answerless Riddle choreographed by Eddie Taketa in collaboration with the dancers, is a choreographic visualization of the pulsing, overlapping, and surging harmonies of John Adams’ Chain to the Rhythm, which peaks with orchestral dynamism. A journey of play, wonderland, and travel, this cast and I worked with Eddie Taketa to investigate momentum, phrasing, and cues. If you would like to hear a more in depth story of this process, I have written about the piece in my blog. I have also created a highlight reel featured on my YouTube channel from this work.
