COMPLEXIONS CONTEMPORARY BALLET – Star Dust: From Bach to Bowie

Led by dance icons Dwight Rhoden and Desmond Richardson, Complexions Contemporary Ballet has awakened audiences to a new, exciting genre with their singular approach of reinventing dance and contemporary ballet. Armed with a rich Alvin Ailey lineage and a cadre of 16 stunning dancers, Complexions has been hailed as a “matchless American dance company” by the Philadelphia Inquirer and “game changing” by London’s The Guardian.

STAR DUST is a Ballet tribute to the genre bending innovation of one of the prolific rock stars of our time – David Bowie. This ballet takes an array of his hits and lays a visual imprint, inspired by his unique personas and his restless invention artistically – to create a Rock Opera style production in his honor. With Bowie’s 40+ year career and 25 albums, that stretch across musical borders – STAR DUST pays homage to the iconic and chameleonic spirit of what can only be described as… BOWIE.
