Playful Pairings

Dance concerts usually have a visual and auditory component for the audience, but rarely include a flavor (unless you know a dancer very well, of course). For Karlovsky & Company Dance's Playful Pairings, your sense of taste will be stimulated as well. While the group performs a set of site-specific dances, wine pairings and treats devised by Chef Samantha Pretto that are designed to complement the themes and movements of each piece will be served. A small ensemble featuring piano, saxophone, bass, percussion and electronics will round out the sensory extravaganza. Perfect Pairings is performed at 8 p.m. Saturday, September 23, at the Grandel Theatre (3610 Grandel Square; www.karlovskydance.org). Tickets are $30.
