Truth
an open rehearsal with John Jasperse Co.
TOPAZ ARTS is pleased to host an open rehearsal by John Jasperse Company. In developing a new work, “Truth, Revised Histories, Wishful Thinking, and Flat Out Lies” (working-title), John Jasperse Company has decided to try out something different -- inviting you to play a key role in its development through a series of open rehearsals. Showing segments of the work, audiences are invited in for feedback – so please feel free to be bold and really tell it as you see it.

“Truth” will be presented in its final form as an evening-length work to premiere in September 2009 in Dresden with the New York premiere at The Joyce Theater in the 2009-10 season. Don't miss this rare opportunity to be involved in the process by John Jasperse Company - widely acclaimed by critics and audiences alike as “one of the most innovative contemporary dance companies of our time”.
