TICKETS + INFORMATION

The influence of Japanese culture on John Cage seems so obvious once you think about it that it’s surprising that nobody’s explored in depth — until this season’s John Cage’s Japan series at the Japan Society. It kicks off with he ineffable Paul Lazar’s revival of Cage Shuffle, in which Lazar performs some of the texts in John Cage’s Indeterminacy in random (duh) order, accompanied by choreography co-created by Lazar’s wife, the also-ineffable Annie-B Parson.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: Am I going to be predictable and send you for hidden basement izakaya at Sakagura? You bet!
