Event
Hyper Human by Ron De Jesus Dance
Ron De Jesus Dance presents its first full evening of dance in Chicago on April 25 and 26 at the Ruth Page Center for the Arts (1016 North Dearborn Street, Chicago). "Hyper Human" is a mixed repertory program of six works, by notable guest choreographers Arte Phillips and Benjamin Millepied, in addition to RDJD artistic director and Chicago native Ron De Jesus. Acclaimed Chicago jazz vocalist Paul Marinaro performs live the score for a world premiere suite of dances by De Jesus, Without a Song Mic Check 1, 2.
The titular work Hyper Human is one of two additional world premieres on the program, choreographed by De Jesus to music by Ben Frost and Ralf Hildeneutel. The work is inspired in part by the choreographic process itself, and how it has helped De Jesus find inner calm. Says the choreographer, "As a child and professional dancer, I was always told to calm down. At times even my feverish foot tapping under the table was 'too much.' I call my anxiety 'the dangerous animal,' and this work addresses how the craft of choreography has helped me tame it."
