DESCRIPTION:Inaugural Resident Comissioned Artist World Premiere\nIn o
 ne of the most anticipated events of our season, New York Live Arts wi
 ll present the world premiere of Yasuko Yokoshi’sBELL. Hailed by Ti
 me Out New York as “a brave, postmodern intellect,” Yokoshi was a
 ppointed as the inaugural Resident Commissioned Artist (RCA) of New Yo
 rk Live Arts in July 2011.  For BELL, Yokoshi has assembled a multidi
 sciplinary cast from Japan and the U.S. to perform in a contemporary r
 eimagining of the classical Japanese dance Kyoganoko Musume-Dojyoji (A
  Woman and a Bell at the Dojoji Temple), reputed to be the most import
 ant and most difficult dance work in the Kabuki theater repertoire.  B
 ELL continues Yokoshi’s collaboration with Masumi Seyama, 82-year o
 ld master teacher of Kabuki Su-odori style dance and successor of reno
 wned choreographer Kanjyuro Fujima VI. Through this collaboration, Yok
 oshi investigates the parallel aesthetics of traditional and contempor
 ary forms and the transgression of cultural boundaries.  Yasuko Yokosh

 ng a two-year residency with salary, benefits and a commission to crea
 te a new work produced by New York Live Arts.\nMar 20 Stay Late Discus
