IN THE INTERNATIONALLY ACCLAIMED PRODUCTION BORROWED LIGHT
PART OF THE 80TH ANNIVERSARY SEASON
"BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND" SERIES
July 9, 2012--(Becket, MA) After touring 11 countries across Europe, North America, and Oceania, Tero Saarinen Company and The Boston Camerata return to Jacob's Pillow with the acclaimed production
Borrowed Light. This unique evening-length work had its U.S. premiere at Jacob's Pillow in 2006 and was invited for a return engagement as part of the 80th Anniversary Season "Back by Popular Demand" series. A beautifully integrated union of stunning visuals, powerful choreography, and haunting live music,
Borrowed Light presents a highly theatrical experience inspired by the culture of the Shakers. John Rockwell of The New York Times raved, "The movements evoke religious austerity and ecstasy..."Borrowed Light" is a true child of "Appalachian Spring," and for a lover of American modern dance there can be no higher praise." Borrowed Light runs July 11
-15 in the Ted Shawn Theatre.
