NIJINSKY IN ASYLUM
conceived & directed by Paul Bedard
choreographed by Katie Palmer
arranged & musically directed by Randall Benichak
NIJINSKY IN ASYLUM is a dance-theater piece depicting the passions and struggles of Russian dancer Vaslov Nijinsky and his two significant others – producer Sergei Diaghilev and wife Romola Pulszky. Drawing on classics of the time, this narrative and dance spectacle triumphs instinct over reason, emotion over thought and, for Nijinsky, art over the self. NIJINSKY IN ASYLUM performs September 2010 with 15 performers accompanied by a live orchestra.
