Tour | Dance Theater Exhibition Tour


Take a tour of Room to Move: Dance Theater Workshop and Alternative Histories of Downtown Dance, an exhibition about how Dance Theater Workshop grew from a need for space into a lasting model of support for artists. Dance Theater Workshop provided not only space to create, but also offered classes and professional development for artists, subsidized video recordings of performances, and gave artists administrative support. For many individual artists, it was the first time that they did not have to manage every aspect of a production by themselves, and this freed up time for creativity and experimentation. Over time, Dance Theater Workshop became a crucial venue for artists in the downtown scene. A number of choreographers now well known all over the world, including Mark Morris, Donald Byrd, Bebe Miller, and Bill T. Jones, all got their start at the Dance Theater Workshop. Dance Theater Workshop also provided funds and initiatives that helped these artists travel and exhibit their work outside of New York, and brought regional artists to the city. We also have them to thank for the Bessie Awards, which recognize outstanding and groundbreaking creative work by independent dance artists in New York City. This tour requires no registration, and is first come, first served.

After repressed, wealthy Sheila Cabot and her physician lover murder her cruel invalid husband Matthew, they are targeted by someone who is aware of their crime. With this alarming complication, their new life together begins unraveling as they become trapped in the realization that someone somewhere knows their dark secret. Director: Michael Gordon Cast: Lana Turner, Anthony Quinn, Sandra Dee, John Saxon, Lloyd Nolan Lana Turner was an American actress. Over a career spanningalmost 50 years, she achieved fame as both a pin-up model and a film actress, and for her highly publicized personal life. In the mid-1940s, she was one of the highest-paid American actresses, and one of MGM's biggest stars, with her films earning approximately one billion dollars in 2024 currency for the studio during her 18-year contract with them. Turner is frequently cited as a popular culture icon due to her glamorous persona, and a screen legend of the Golden Age of Hollywood. Her reputation as a glamorous femme fatale was enhanced by her critically acclaimed performances in film noir. She was nominated for numerous awards. Anthony Quinn was an American actor known for his portrayal of earthy, passionate characters in over 100 film, television, and stage roles between 1936 and 2002. He was a two-time Academy Award winner, and was also nominated for five Golden Globe Awards, two BAFTA Awards and a Tony Award. Initially typecast as a "heavy" and playing other minor parts as well, he was gradually cast in more substantial parts, including co-starring roles in Blood and Sand (1941) and The Ox-Bow Incident (1943). He won his first Oscar, for Best Supporting Actor, for his part in Viva Zapata! (1952), becoming the first Mexican-born performer to win an Academy Award. He received his second Oscar in 1957 for Lust for Life. He was nominated for Best Actor twice more, for his roles in Wild is the Wind (1958) and Zorba the Greek (1964). His other notable films included La Strada (1954), T, Lawrence of Arabia (1962), Guns for San Sebastian (1968), The Message (1976), Jungle Fever (1991) and Seven Servants (1996). He also starred in the Broadway plays A Streetcar Named Desire, Becket (earning a Tony nomination for Best Actor in a Play), and Zorba (reprising his film role). Along with his acting career, Quinn was also a civil rights activist, an avid painter, and the author of several autobiographical books. In 1987, he was presented with the Golden Globe Cecil B. DeMille Lifetime Achievement Award.

Jazz | Ensemble Performs New Style of K-Jazz


This event is the debut performance of Gonia, a jazz ensemble with a sophisticated understanding of Korean rhythms and high-level performance. The group has established itself in the jazz scene and is drawing attention at home and abroad for their in-depth knowledge of Korean rhythms and prowess with traditional Korean instruments. Based on the traditional Korean rhythms on the janggu, Gonia has created a new style of K-jazz. In November 2020, Gonia's fifth album, A Tension, was released and nominated for the Crossover Album category of the 18th Korean Popular Music Awards, where it received recognition for its value and achievements. The breath of Gutgeori, the joy of Jajinmori, and the dynamism that comes from Whimori are harmonized with improvisation and the beauty of jazz to create Gonia's unique sound! There are two ways to access this event: 1. General Admission, first-come first-served. Just show up! 2. Fast Track opening the Monday before the event at noon.
