Dance at Topanga Library May 5, 2012

Join Benita Bike’s DanceArt at the new Topanga Library for an interactive performance and discover how dances are made and how dance artists train, work, and create. Dances will be performed, and there will be numerous opportunities for audience members to interact with artists.

Benita Bike’s DanceArt is known for its elegant performance and its dramatic use of space and gesture to make sensitive observations on life. Benita Bike’s choreography stands at the crossroads of past and present, blending the music and sensibilities of the past with evocative contemporary movement. For 31 seasons this company has performed near and far – from the California coast to New England and abroad – bringing both concert dance and unique interactive outreach performances to audiences large and small.
This program will feature three dances, “Currents and Eddies,” “Entrelazadas,” and “Eternal Encounter.”

The library is located at 122 N. Topanga Canyon Blvd. in Topanga, California.
