I’m from the rural South and my interest in this period borders on the religious, and I’ve been paranoid that I’m missing something.

Madiba

Play/Show Appearance0 Comments

Madiba, a celebration of the life and ideas of Nelson Mandela, premieres at the Joyce Theater in New York. The work has elements of modern and Afro-Caribbean dance as well as ballet, performed with elegant athleticism by dancers of varying body types. It includes a sensuous ballet-inflected duet and a modern version of a South African circle dance. Fagan injects technology into the choreography by attaching a small high-definition video camera to his lead dancer’s head at times. This allows him to film the other performers while he dances, with the images projected onto a screen. These images are meant to suggest Mandela’s perspective and memories of friendships, love, incarceration.

I want Madiba to be an inspirational piece for survival, for change. I’m interested in the strength, the perseverance, in uniting his country. It’s a community of people. It’s more than one person.

The Ides of March

Film Appearance0 Comments

Gosling plays Stephen Meyers, a presidential campaign press spokesman, in this look at politics behind the scenes, directed by George Clooney. Meyers starts off idealistic, then learns more than he wants to know about dirty politics on the campaign trail. Co-starring George Clooney, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and Evan Rachel Wood.

The Ides of March was an opportunity to work with a lot of actors that are really at the top of their game. I want to direct some day. Watching George is really interesting. He’s sort of possessed by the film while he’s making it.
