College Park, MD— Choreographer David Dorfman explores the vulnerability, virtuosity and mortality of daily life in Come, and Back Again at the Kay Theatre at the Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center November 1 and 2 at 8 pm.  Inspired by the stimulating poetry and unapologetic, raw ferocity of the underground 90’s Atlanta band “Smoke,” five dancers and a band of musicians create a kinetic anthem of reckless personal abandon. Dorfman plays the role of both dancer and saxophonist in this striking work that contemplates how time and memory influence and define our changeable human existence.

Join the artists for a Talk Back following the Friday, November 1 performance.
