FRANTIC BEAUTY

FRANTIC BEAUTY reflects on society’s pursuit of and relationship to beauty, and features an original score by Emmy-winning composer Jeff Beal (House of Cards). Layering their signature physicality over vivid visual landscapes, the multidisciplinary duo Ximena Garnica and Shige Moriya and the LEIMAY Ensemble return to BAM Fisher with this world premiere.

The LEIMAY Ensemble, (based at CAVE, an arts space founded by Shige Moriya in 1996 and co-led by Ximena Garnica) is a group of international dancers and performers who maintain an ongoing educational and performative practice rooted in the LUDUS practice. Current members of the ensemble are Masanori Asahara, Derek DiMartini, Mario Galeano, Krystel Copper, and Omer Ephron.
