Ephrat Asherie "Odeon"

Led by The Boston Globe’s “bona fide b-girl,” Ephrat Asherie Dance makes its Fisher Center debut with Odeon, a high-energy, hybrid hip-hop work set to and inspired by the music of early 20th-century Brazilian composer Ernesto Nazareth, played live. Recipient of a 2016 New York Dance and Performance (“Bessie”) Award, Ephrat “Bounce” Asherie layers breaking, hip-hop, house, and vogue to the rich sounds of Nazareth’s buoyant score, which melds classical romantic music with popular Afro-Brazilian rhythms.
