20:00, Fri 26th April 2019 - Sat 27th April 2019 at Emmanuel College Chapel
Easter Week 0
CALL FOR DANCERS AND CO-CHOREOGRAPHER
On April 26th and 27th the Cambridge University Baroque Ensemble in collaboration with Emmanuel College Music Society will collaborate in an exciting production of two rarely performed operas, the first is the prologue from Elizabeth Jaquet de la Guerre’s Céphale et Procris, from 1694 and the second Marc-Antoine Charpentier’s Les Arts Florissants from 1685. These incredible works include short dance interludes, so the production team are searching for dancers who would be interested in performing, along with a co-choreographer who would be interested in working collaboratively to devise the dances. The music will be performed on historically informed instruments so this will be an opportunity to perform dance with live music and singing with a friendly and musical team!
If you would be interested either in dancing or joining the production team as a co-choreographer, contact the production team at cubeoperaproject@gmail.com
Contact cubeoperaproject@gmail.com before Mon 15th Apr, 13:00 for more details.
