The Lodge at Traverse, Lehi
Enjoy small bites of artisan-crafted food, paired with contemporary dance inspired by each taste profile!
Wasatch Contemporary Dance Company presents Savor, a captivating contemporary dance production debuting April 10 at The Lodge at Traverse Mountain. This performance will invite audience members to savor the taste of an artisan-crafted small bite to pair with each piece of choreography. Throughout the evening, choreographers have crafted experiences that invite audiences to feel rather than simply observe.
Choreographer Taylor Tumminia draws on the effervescence and ritual of sparkling cider to explore celebration and fleeting joy. The piece builds from collaborative movement into an exuberant, communal dance.
Inspired by the entrée steak, choreographer Aubrey Fisher transforms flavor into movement, which captures smoky intensity and hearty texture. Intimate partnering and ensemble moments evoke the warmth of gathering around a shared meal.
Join us for an evening of texture, taste, and transformation!
