WHITE PLAZA EVENT #1
A Site-Specific Event
Saturday, March 12, 2:00 pm
White Plaza, Lasuen Mall

Stanford upholds the tradition of the “Cunningham Event.” For this experiment in creation, the Merce Cunningham Dance Company joins forces with artistic partners to create art specific to a particular site, in this case, White Plaza at the center of Stanford's campus. The company performs to music created by faculty composer Mark Applebaum, the Stanford Improvisation Collective ([sic]), and students immersed in the study of John Cage. (Rain location: Dinkelspiel Auditorium)
