Choreographer Wally Cardona returns to BAM with an intimate exploration of the human species. With passion and extraction, Really Real reflects on love, loss, desire, youth, beauty, and power using simple means to expose the intricate relationships and meanings that exist between people in a complex world. The work is set to an intimate acoustic sound score by Phil Kline—performed live by the Grammy Award-winning Brooklyn Youth Chorus—and also features three popular love songs. Really Real's stark design utilizes a bare stage, people, and lighting by Cardona's long-time collaborator Roderick Murray, and features six dancers and several guests.
