Moving Myths

  • Hobby Center for the Performing Arts 800 Bagby Street Houston, TX, 77002 United States (map)

Come and experience a magical performance presented by Houston Contemporary Dance Company and the Institute of Contemporary Dance on June 4th, 2022 at 1PM and 4PM at Zilkha Hall at the Hobby Center for the Performing Arts.

Written by playwright/novelist Elizabeth A. M. Keel, this one-hour fantastical journey follows four travelers as they share stories based on traditional myths from Chinese, Native American, Norwegian, and Ethiopian cultures. The performance utilizes an array of stimulating visual elements including costuming, props, and set pieces, and features sound and video design by BEND Productions. Moving Myths is designed for students of all ages and provides multicultural content to mirror HCDC’s core values of inclusion and equity.

Moving Myths is funded in part by the City of Houston through the Houston Arts Alliance and National Endowment for the Arts. We would also like to thank the Houston area Lexus Dealer, United Airlines, Scott and Judy Nyquist and the Berthelot Family Foundation for their support of this performance.
