Water Wars in West Hartford:
Sonia Plumb Dance Company Presents
Water Wars on September
21 and 22 and the University of St. Joseph
West Harford CT (June 12, 2012) – After thrilling audiences for a decade throughout the
Northeast, the Sonia Plumb Dance Company is back after a 10-year hiatus to
present a preview of the Company’s newest performance, Water Wars, at the University of St. Joseph, West Hartford, Ct. on September
21 and 22, 2012 at 7:30pm. Tickets range from $20 for the general public to $5
for students in advance or $25 and $10 the week of.
“Water
Wars explores our very human relationship to water both spiritually and
physically,” said Sonia Plumb, artistic director and choreographer. “When a family is
displaced from their home as the result of drought or a flood, the upheaval is
intense, raw and devastating. The Company’s dancers in Water Wars will take us on a physical journey through these
emotionally-charged issues.”
Water Wars exemplifies the Sonia
Plumb Dance Company’s long-time commitment to social responsibility and
education outreach to the community. “Water touches all aspects of our lives
every day, which is something that many people don’t think about until it’s
difficult to obtain.” said Plumb. “Water
Wars was developed to encourage dialogue around a core environmental issue
that impacts all us, our children and future generations. Water is becoming
scarce in many parts of the world and even in our own backyard as the result of
pollution, overuse and climate change. What is our moral responsibility to
water conservation? Where do we draw the line between environment and
economics?”
Following
the performance, join Plumb and water conservation experts through a
conversation about the dance and local water issues.
