Coral Gables Art Cinema

Join IlluminArts for the Premiere Screening of a film created about the 2022 IlluminArts program, "To Reach the Light". In April 2022, IlluminArts presented the Philadelphia based vocal ensemble Variant 6 in a collaborative, multi-disciplinary performance featuring six newly commissioned pieces by composers from across the United States and Europe with new original choreography performed by Dimensions Dance Theatre of Miami. In the height of the pandemic, IlluminArts asked each composer to write a piece based on ideas of transformation, adaptation, growth and change: themes that resonated through the world at the time. The results were six wildly different, exciting compositions. The April 2022 performances took place in Miami at the Rubell Museum and in Philadelphia at the Glen Foerd Estate. The film, captured and edited by Alex Markow with sound engineering by The Guild Live, features fascinating interviews with the artists and composers, as well as the entire extraordinary performance. The Live Premiere Film Screening will take place at the Coral Gables Art Cinema on Saturday, December 3rd at 12 PM. Tickets are available for $10. I﻿f you are not able to attend the Live Premiere Film Screening on December 3, the film will be available online from December 3-17.
