Benjamin Akio Kimitch

Part of the Pasculano Collaborative for Contemporary Dance As part of our new Dance Encounters series, choreographer Benjamin Akio Kimitch dreams beyond the mantra of East-meets-West. Inspired by his formative training in Chinese dance and intimate encounters with Peking opera, Kimitch creates a dance work that honors his late mother, a dancer. He has welcomed a group of creative collaborators into his cosmic, sunrise-colored search for authentic personal expression, using warrior elements of Peking opera as a transformative source of beauty and strength—restaged for an unforgettable outdoor experience. The work features music by Clarie M Singer and costumes by Carlos Soto; performed by Pareena Lim, Julie McMillan Castellano, and Lai Yi Ohlsen. Imported from the official Lincoln Center Summer for the City lineup and verified against the official event page. Official tags: OUTDOOR, ALL AGES, DANCE.
