This performance celebrates the professional relationships of Shirley Rus-so- n Ririe and Joan Woodbury, the com- Utahs renowned Ririe--W directors. panys founders and This dance concert, which promises to be energized with electricity, will feature Keith Terry, an enigmatic body musician and dancer, as well as the works of New York choreographers Phyllis Lamhut, Daniel Shapiro, Joanie Smith, Alison Chase and Moses Pendleton. Appropriately titled Hot Guests..., Salt Lake City audiences will be exposed to a virtual whos who of modem dance choreography. Dancers are noted The throughout the United States and abroad for their vigorous, forceful movements and especially for their amazing gymnastics and balances. One of a kind, Keith Terry is actually a body percussionist. Terrys solo performance is an explosive mixture of rhythm co-artis- tic Ririe-Woodb- ury dance, live music, comedy, social commentary and body music. In other words, or street language, this bizarre dude from California uses his bod to make awesome music. This one-ma- n body band claps his stamps hands, rubs his palms, finger-pophis his cheek, his feet, brushes soles, pops whomps his chest, skips and slides, sings, babbles and coughs, building his music out of a surprisingly varied register of sounds and clever rhythmic variations, as noted by The Village Voice. On both nights other program entries will include Mirage Blanc by Lamhut; To Have And To Hold by Shapiro and Smith; and Physalia by Chase and Pendleton. Mirage Blanc which is set to eight piano waltzes, paints a vivid picture of a delightful series of social situations gone out of the right course. To Have And To s, Issue 23 April 16, 1991 Hold is a highly physical work which in- corporates satire, slapstick and psychological insight.
