Robert Steijn performs at Danspace Project - New York, NY (April 15-17, 2010)

April 15-17, 2010 at 8PM

In April, Danspace Project return for the final performance of Ralph Lemon' s i get lost Platform, Robert and Maria, created and performed by Maria Hassabi and Robert Steijn. "You dance inside my chest where no one sees you, but sometimes, I do, and this sight makes our dance."

Maria Hassabi has been performing shows since childhood, and Robert Steijn began dancing rituals at forty-five. In this first duet they dance together, they ask themselves where outside differences meet inside similarities. They desperately want to know when opposites become the two sides of the same coin, called love.

PLATFORMS 2010 is a component of Danspace Project's Choreographic Center Without Walls (CW2), a multi-year commissioning and presentation research and development project which has received major support from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. As part of Platforms 2010, Robert and Maria is made possible with funds from the 2009-2010 Danspace Project Commissioning Initiative with support from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, and the Consulate General of the Netherlands in New York.
