The Theater Program is proud to present Butoh Medea! Inspired by the Medea myth and Euripides’ great tragedy, interdisciplinary artist-in-residence, Yokko,  uses Japanese Butoh Dance to bring the tortured spirit of Medea to life. The fusion of Eastern dance and Western drama invites the audience inside Medea’s dark and desperate struggle. Trapped in the underworld, she is forever cursed to relive her tragic journey through love, hate, and ultimate loss. Butoh Medea will have its final performance at Ramapo College after winning numerous awards and touring nationally and internationally for the past ten years. The event will include a post-show talkback with the creative team.

Absolutely no late seating.

Free and open to the public! Limit 2 tickets with advance reservation.

Please note: Butoh Medea contains mature content, depictions of violence, and partial nudity. Intended for audiences 18 and over.

Shayna Steele Headshot
May. 03
08:00 pm - 09:30 pm

Fresh off the stage at the Fall 2024 Monterey Jazz Festival, Shayna Steele and her Band will close out our 2024-2025 season. In an evening you won’t forget, Shayna Steele will grace audiences with music steeped in Soul, retro R&B, and Jazz, all showcasing Steele’s supremely soulful energy, as well as her mind blowing vocal artistry and songwriting skills.

Shayna has performed with the likes of Rihanna, Kelly Clarkson, Bette Midler and Steely Dan as a sought after background vocalist. Shayna has been touring regularly as a featured vocalist with Grammy Award winning trumpeter, Chris Botti, was a featured vocalist on Snarky Puppy’s “Family Dinner” and reached #1 on the Dance Billboard charts as a featured vocalist on Moby’s “Disco Lies.”

Downbeat Magazine commends Shayna Steele, writing  “Switching between originals, R&B  favorites and jazz standards, Steele’s set was a study in contrasts and dynamics.”
