Performance: "Chimaera" with Oscar Suh-Rodriguez

November 14, 2026

The Franklin Castle

4308 Franklin Blvd

Cleveland, OH

CHIMAERA is the debut eponymous choreography by Oscar Suh-Rodriguez and Eilish Henderson’s collaborative duo.

The title is representative of a third corporeal spirit that is conjured when we meet in dance–part phantom, part demon, ashen, soot-footed and honey-skinned. The work began as an improvised dance on a sunny hill, then emerged once more on a midnight beneath a strawberry moon–feet on sand, fingers running through fossils, eyes hidden. The final work is as much transcription as it is composition, evoking images and movements discovered through our improvisations. We assembled the choreography from memories of dances, our mutual love of Butoh, and more. We then set out to craft the soundscape together, molding and refining as we climbed deeper into the dance. As we share many interests and appreciate similar aesthetics, it was easy to find a unifying palette without discussion. We stand upon the same black moon. We both understand the setting. We are both together receiving this landscape.

"Interbeing": Butoh/Contact Improvisation Classes

Saturdays (June 20, June 27, August 8, August 15, August 22, September 12, September 19)

2-4 pm

at Supr Omen

Brooklyn, NY

Fee Structure:

$25-35 Sliding Scale

These open classes, entitled "Interbeing", facilitated by Eilish Henderson will act as a continuing inquiry into the ways in which we can approach contact improvisation from a butoh lens. The essence of our being is interbeing- with eternal and necessary threads connecting us to the land, rivers, and one another. Grounded in the notions of the body as water vessels, these classes will act as a supportive movement practice that engages a deep sense of listening-prioritizing care, slowness, and awareness of gravity in moments of contact. Each session will be distinct and informed by those present.

The flow will look something like this: arrival/grounding, several guided exercises with images/textures, open jam/improvisation, and a closing. No prior experience with butoh or contact improvisation is necessary.

Teaching Open Butoh Class

for New York Butoh Institute/Vangeline Theater

Sunday, October 12 from 5-7 pm

115 Wooster Street

New York, NY 10012

Drawing upon personal performance practice and eco-somatics, these classes will explore butoh rooted in ephemerality, memory and collective consciousness. Through visuals of transience and disappearance the body will expand upon itself guided by reaching towards past selves, situated through the sensorial breath individually and collectively. As we travel through time, we evade it. Come join and explore this methodology with any level of experience.
