State of Darkness/Bardo: Dance Company in New York

About State of Darkness/Bardo

State of Darkness/Bardo is a dance project presented in New York City at The Joyce Theater, shaped around focused, performer-led interpretation. The work has been performed by Cassandra Trenary, a principal dancer with the Vienna State Ballet, alongside Michael Trusnovec, pairing classical stage discipline with a more contemporary physical tenor. Its structure emphasizes theatrical detail and tonal shifts rather than narrative certainty. The result favors clarity of intention over spectacle, letting technique and atmosphere carry the evening.
