Premiere World Premiere
Country of Origin United States
Description This tetralogy consisted of Night Tide, Beam, Shadow and Elegy and was presented in Eiko & Koma's first season at Next Wave Festival.

Nude, or swathed in striking costumes; sprawled in a pool of water or baking in a merciless sun, the Japanese-born performance artists Eiko & Koma create dramatic images that become indelibly etched on the minds of their audiences. The premiere of their evening-length tetralogy New Moon Stories in the '86 Next Wave festival marks a further milestone in their development. Its four sections incorpoarte music, silence, and startling images.
