This new work by Spectrum Dance Theater reimagines Carl Orff’s popular scenic cantata as a journey from doubt and disillusionment to a restoration of faith in the essential goodness of man. Tony-nominated choreographer Donald Byrd’s first encounter with Orff’s score led to a large-scale danced drama for New York City Opera in 1997. In stark contrast, this new staging promises to be a minimalist rumination on the fact that the authors of the music’s text were, more than likely, defrocked monks.
