Every year at EC, we have a popular event featuring Kodo’s apprentices, “Dreaming of the Kodo Stage.” This year, we’re mixing things up by transforming this event into a special collaboration: Kodo’s 2nd–year apprentices will be joined by Niigata dance company Noism’s apprentices, Noism2! As apprentices of Niigata-based international performing arts companies, these youths have many things in common. Big dreams for one, and similar foundations spanning dance, sound, and music. Don’t miss this chance to hear all about their training and see them in action. We hope to see you there!
