Nomeena versus Eepah-sen is a battle between two beings who inhabit one skin. Their dance is a fight for dominance. Nomeena has a little motor running all the time and she purrs, “No, no, no, you cannot do anything right, no, no, no, no. Stop trying and die of fright.” She lulls you into oblivion. Eepah-sen grabs the world by its face and plants a wet one on the kisser. He speaks in gibberish and believes in happiness. Who should win? Who does win? Do you keep fighting? This piece is a meditation on harmony, unity, acceptance and love.

Edward Cox, a former member of the Miami City Ballet, and LaBake O., a professional hip hop dancer and choreographer and member of Culture Shock, will perform this original ten-minute dance piece about a battle between one person’s id and superego set to an arrangement of Tricky and Nine Inch Nails by Maximum 50. Directed by Soul member Ravi Batista*.

Program 2 also includes performances by Allyson Esposito, Zephyra, Erin Carlisle Norton, Leah Raffanti, Thread Meddle Outfit, Working Class, and Christy Munch.

ABOUT THE FESTIVAL

Time is one of the most talked about subjects in human life. It is a subject of philosophy, TV commercials, and dinner-table conversation. It structures everything from the when the alarm clock goes off, to the movement of the tides. Adler Danztheatre’s 4th annual Full Circle Danztheatre Festival brings time to the stage in “The day, the hour, the second, the moment after…” Premiering February 15 – 23, 2007 at Hamlin Park Studio Theater (3035 N. Hoyne), the festival presents two separate programs with 16 of Chicago’s most innovative dance and dance/theater companies.
