AscenDance Project: Beyond Gravity
Ryan Gaunt, Isabel von Rittberg, Susan Owen, and Elena Cochran are a few members of Berkeley Ironworks with strong backgrounds in dance. They are in a local dance group called AscnDance and will be having a performance beginning March 5.
AscenDance Project is a new company founded in January of 2006 by German born performance artist and rock climber Isabel von Rittberg to create work that explores the aesthetics of climbing. Movement on a vertical stage, without the use of ropes, has a beauty and grace enhanced by the effects of gravity on the dancer and his/her ability to overcome.
AscenDance Project presents their first home season at the Ashby Stage, 1901 Ashby Avenue in Berkeley this spring in a series of performances beginning on March 5, 2010. Andy Schmeder, Lara Mercurio, Elena Cochran, Martha Hazel, Susan Owen, Ryan Gaunt and Isabel von Rittberg will be performing Beyond Gravity March 5, 6, 12 & 13 at 8 PM and March 14 at 3 PM.
General Admission: $25 ($20 Sunday only), Students and Seniors: $20, Kids under 12: $10. Tickets on sale at www.ascendanceproject.com For information contact: info@ascendanceproject.com or call 510-225-8844
