Brazil’s Taanteatro Dance/Theater Company is coming to Tivoli, NY in the mid-hudson valley to hold an intimate workshop called BUTOH-OHNO.
Maura Baiocchi & Wolfgang Pannek, co-directors of Taanteatro will be honoring Kazuo Ohno, the founder of Butoh, on his 105th birthday anniversary with a full day, hands-on workshop. Experience what a class with Mr. Ohno at his Yokohama Studiowould have been like.In the late 80′s Maura Baiocchi was personally invited to be a part of Kazuo Ohno’s legendary dance studio after he experienced one of her performances in Brasilia, Brazil. She moved to his beach house in Kamakura, with other Ohno students, and attended daily classes at his studio. This experience led Maura to develop her own dance/theater approach which she went on to call taanteatro – theater of tensions.

This will be an unforgettable experience for any dancer or performer interested, attracted or curious about Kazuo Ohno and Butohand a great opportunity to meet Taanteatro’s directors who plan an immersive workshop in Tivoli for 2013.
