Title: Takako Vs Nine Lives
Performers: Laura Katz Rizzo and Sun Mi Cho
Choreography: Laura Katz Rizzo in collaboration with Mike Quackenbush
Composer, Tim Korn
Director, Lauren Wolkstein
Producer, Chanelle Elaine
Director of Photography, Jen Schneider
Costumes: Closet Champion
Description: Takako Vs. Nine Lives is screen dance that uses a hybrid dance language and multiple camera perspectives to create parodic feminist interpretation of a three act balletic pas de deux/ three round wrestling match. The choreography, performed to an original score, draws upon vocabulary and aesthetic imagery from professional wrestling, classical ballet, comic books and Japanese manga. The action follows a mythological narrative, with characters behaving according to codes employed in Greek mythology, fairy tales and commedia dell’ arte. A battle unfolds, reflecting the interconnectedness of love and violence, beauty and monstrosity, strength and vulnerability.

Currently an assistant professor of Dance at Temple University in Philadelphia, she has taught a diverse range of students at dance schools and companies across the United States. Katz is also a writer and frequent contributor to popular, professional and scholarly publications. Her book, Dancing the Fairy Tale, illuminates the importance of both women and the city of Philadelphia to the development and proliferation of classical ballet in the United States.
