B. MADONNA WOWS AUDIENCES IN NYC- LA MAMA BLOGShttp://www.maureenfleming.com/pages/reviews_pages/2013-10_09_LaMamaBlog.html
B. MADONNA
Internationally acclaimed performer, Maureen Fleming brings her contemporary unveiling of the myth of Persephone to the stage of the Ellen Stewart Theatre. With text by David Henry Hwang and music by Philip Glass (performed live by pianist Bruce Brubaker), original accordion music by Guy Klucevsek, and Taiko drumming by Kaoru Watanabe, this beautiful, multimedia meditation on ’miracles’ juxtaposes Fleming’s new and repertory works with three-dimensional video projections designed by longtime collaborator Christopher Odo.
“In the sensually stunning zone between dance and sculpture…astonishing geometry on stage.”
- NY Theatre Now
“B. Madonna is a show without comparison…Philip Glass’ haunting score adds to the mystical atmosphere… An unparalleled experience and a wonder to behold.”
-Flavorpill
“B. Madonna at La MaMa continually transcends theatrical expectations and constructs a state of perpetual presence… not unlike the effect of viewing the Grand Canyon or Niagara Falls… [Maureen Fleming] moves with the skill and the force of nature…”
- New York Theatre Review
”Fleming…seemed to transcend the material world and enter a realm of pure spirit…Wondrous choreographic metamorphosis.”
