Desert
Sin’s Musée des Femmes
The Desert Sin Dance Company, known nationwide for their edgy, erotic, and
spectacular fusion of dance and theater, returns to Hollywood for an
expanded return engagement of their sold-out 2004 production, Musee des
Femmes – Tales of the Grotesque and Arabesque (“Museum of Women”),
again at the Ivar Theater in Hollywood.
This lavish,
over-the-top, two-act spectacle is an imaginative journey through history
and mythology using sight and sound to visit the boldest and most intriguing
women throughout time, via the magical production know-how of Illusionaring
FX master Jeremy Vargus. Musée des Femmes is a carnival extravaganza
retelling the tales of some of the boldest, sexiest, most intriguing women
of history & fiction with an emotional & human twist on fantastic
characters you thought you knew. In the first act, the unique story line
lends an emotional and human twist to stories of legendary film starlet Mata
Hari, the Hindu goddess Kali, and Joan of Arc, to name but a few. The second
act takes you on a high-tech, Vegas-style, magical dusk-till-dawn tour of
Ancient Egypt!
Desert Sin is
one of the most experimental, cutting-edge dance companies in North America.
Founded in 1999, the now-20 member Desert Sin Dance Co utilizes Middle
Eastern dance, ballet, modern, neo-exotica, extensive theatrics and
costuming in their critically acclaimed productions.
