Cynthia Word and the Word Dance Theater.

A presentation of "Nereid," choreographed by Cynthia Word, performed by Jenifer Golden, Ingrid Zimmer, and Cynthia Word to music by Vassilis Tsabropoulos. Intrigued and inspired by the paintings of Anne Davey in her exhibition “From the Depths of the Salt Sea,” Cynthia began researching the classical idea of Nereids as sea goddesses as well as Davey’s thoughts of the Nereids as “real, but enigmatic women.” "Nereid" was premiered at the Center for Hellenic Studies, September 16, 2017.
