Emanuel Gat Dance: LOVETRAIN2020
Cost: $72-42 / ($10 Duke Students)
Emanuel Gat's work explores the intersections between choreography, music, audio and visuals to move audiences and tell stories.
Presented in partnership with American Dance Festival, Duke Arts and NC State LIVE, LOVETRAIN2020 is a choreographic ode to the sound and vibe of the 80s, as embodied in the music of Tears For Fears, with its utopic drive and epic groove.
"Mr. Gat melds gestural detail with larger-scale movement, sometimes working against the music's rhythms, sometimes with them, frequently in silence. This eccentric physical dialogue with the music - mostly in a minor key and vaguely gloomy in content yet somehow gloriously singalong - is exhilarating.
