Eleonora is an fierce performance of dance, music and projections where two stories of passion and redemption are told upon the stage in an elegant night of theater.
This first show in the Astra Dance Company's season celebrates the writings of two authors best known for their vivid imaginations and macabre styling, Edgar Allan Poe and Clive Barker. But this evening the darkness in the visions of both writers will be illuminated and softened by the enchantment of romance. Unique and stirring, the Astra Dance Company sets these pieces to music & dance and and accompanied by projections and theatrics to draw the viewer in and capture their heart.
“Eleonora” is Edgar Allen Poe’s only story where love is rewarded and the hero is redeemed at the end of his tale.
Opening our evening of passion is a poem of Clive Barker’s entitled “I Dreamed I Spoke In Another’s Language”. A beautiful piece of love and longing, told by a living legend of modern fiction.
Astra Dance Company brings together an intense ensemble of dancers and performers and creates a lively night in the beautiful and historic El Portal Theater.
