A collaboration among the Menil Collection, Houston Ballet, and the Merce Cunningham Trust

Staged for Houston Ballet by former Cunningham dancers Patricia Lent and Andrea Weber, this hour-long performance includes excerpts from dances for which Jasper Johns provided costumes and decor, including Canfield (1969), Landrover (1972), Un jour ou deux (1973), and Exchange (1978). At the same time, a group of Houston’s finest musicians perform compositions by John Cage, including his Inlets, Branches, Third Construction, Cheap Imitation, and Telephones and Birds. Musicians include Ling Ling Huang, Brandon Bell, Craig Hauschildt, Luke Hubley, Brady Spitz, Yvonne Chen, Julia Fox, and Bethany Baxter.
