In Collage Revisited, the full company revisits The History of Collage, the last collaboration between Bill T. Jones and Arnie Zane before Arnie’s death. Originally created in 1988, the remounting is part of a legacy project for the company—looking back to look forward. Kaatsbaan audiences will experience a preview of the first time Collage will be performed in over 20 years. The piece recalls the excitement the two artists shared as they set out to reconsider dance spectacle during the 1980s art scene. Collage Revisited blends dance, music, and spoken word, exploring themes of identity. STORY/, a work conceived and directed by Bill T. Jones from 2013, has been added to the program.

On Saturday, August 30, 3–7 pm, Samosa Shack food truck, an Hudson Valley favorite at some of the busiest farm & flea markets, pop-ups, and catered events, will be on site at Kaatsbaan. Samosa Shack uses Hudson Valley farm-fresh, seasonal ingredients to bring handcrafted, plant-based, Indian-inspired deliciousness to the beautiful surroundings of Kaatsbaan on its opening weekend!
