Gabri Christa, Director of the Movement Lab and Assistant Professor of Professional Practice in Dance, just concluded two weeks of performances at Theater Lab NYC. She performed Magdalena, a multimedia, solo dance performance that reveals a deeply personal account of experiencing her Dutch mother’s dementia, and an effort to piece together her past, marked by struggles with war, interracial marriage and unconventional motherhood. The piece marks a stage comeback for Christa, whose work has been hailed as “stunning… multimedia dream” by The New York Times.
Guy de Lancey, Studio Manager of the Media Center & Movement Lab, served as the performance's Dramaturg and Technical Director.
