Twyla Tharp Dance
Diamond Jubilee
Prelude Interview hosted by Molly Puryear - 6:30 PM.
Twyla Tharp celebrates her 60th anniversary with a coast-to-coast tour featuring her Olivier-nominated Diabelli Variations, set to Beethoven's masterpiece of the same name, and a new dance to a reimagining of Philip Glass's iconic Aguas da Amazonia, arranged by Third Coast Percussion. Showcasing Tharp's uncanny and witty use of music to create work of startling originality and beauty, the two dances once again ensure Tharp's place as one of the great artists of our time.
