From October 23 to November 25, 2009, CAVE will present its fourth biennial Butoh Festival. Events will be presented at Dixon Place in Soho, Dance New Amsterdam in Tribeca and CAVE in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Butoh-kan offers rigorous physical training and enriches students with first person contact with international masters. It is an integrative opportunity for the dancers, actors and interdisciplinary performers. This year’s festival presents a striking roster of master teachers and performers. With performances, artist talks, workshops and participatory opportunities for scholars, it offers a unique platform for the development of local dancers and encourages active dialogue on Butoh’s origins, evolution and global status.
"The New York Butoh Festival allowed connoisseurs and novices alike to steep themselves in this enigmatic dance… You couldn’t explain it, perhaps, but the raw experience was undeniable.”
