Wally Cardona is a choreographer who is deeply interested in the place of dance in our culture – where it is and why it is. His current work, THE SET UP, is a multi-year project that starts with an encounter through dance. The project explores questions of appropriation and contemporary dance practice by immersing himself in dance traditions that are not his own. He has most recently traveled to Myanmar to study with Saya Lei, a master of classical Burmese dance and his disciple Myint Mo. In March, Mo will travel with Cardona to Southern Vermont to work at VPL to continue the dance training and exchange.
