Brian Brooks Moving Company

Brian Brooks Moving Company Erin Baiano

A recipient of a 2013 Guggenheim Fellowship, Brian Brooks creates dances that test the edges of physical endurance, making “you feel the excitement of the pure-movement experiment in every moment” (The New York Times). His Joyce engagement features a world premiere; a New York premiere set to Steve Reich’s “Vermont Counterpoint;” and two of Brooks’ most recent works—Division, in which the company navigates through an ever-shifting maze of movable and held-held surfaces, and Torrent, which sends a cast of 28 soaring to a revelatory score by Max Richter as they fluctuate between orderly patterns and unrestricted turbulence.
