World Stage presents The Radio Show Presented by: Harbourfront Centre's World Stage Starts: February 5, 2014 Ends: February 8, 2014 Event Time(s):8:00 PM to 9:10 PMWebsite: www.harbourfrontcentre.com/worldstage/theradioshow/Phone:416-973-4000 Cost Information: $39.00 A regular collaborator with Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company and Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, Abraham is calling for the re-evaluation of contemporary dance in the United States. The Radio Show is an elegy to the motown and hip hop played on the only urban-format radio stations in Abraham's hometown of Pittsburgh, Pa. When they went off the air abruptly in 2009, it was the same time that his father lost his language to Alzheimer's. In the sudden silence, Abraham picked up the pieces – the songs, the words, the static – and he made a dance. Revealing the rituals of listening and revelling in the joy of moving to the music, The Radio Show is a welcoming memorial.
