Rock on! Celia Rowlson-Hall reconceives the ancient myth of Sisyphus, the Corinthian king condemned to spend eternity as an underground pusher. In this dance-theater version, Sissy is a pregnant woman whose boulder becomes the moon at night and a disco ball for parties—and whose story expands into meta territory to encompass show's performers and director grappling with real-life tasks and frustrations. Actors Marisa Tomei—yes, you read that right—and Ida Saki (of Broadway's Dancin') are joined by dancers Jesse Kovarsky, Nando Morland, Aliza Russell and Jacob Thoman.
