STREB EXTREME ACTION brings its thrilling feats of physicality, grace, strength, and risk back to SLAM! This fall’s performances, FAILING FORWARD AGAIN, will showcase new action, new stunts, and new ideas, along with some familiar favorites.

FAILING FORWARD, AGAIN investigates Elizabeth Streb’s philosophy that failure is an integral part of the creative process, making space for discovery and innovation and leading to unexpected, surprising and truly original moves. The show will feature gasp-inducing first looks at these experiments, the likes of which can only be experienced at STREB’s warehouse space, SLAM. This gem of Williamsburg is uniquely qualified to house these bold investigations. PLUS, the company will share a show-and-tell preview of STREB’s newest Action Machine – SURF, a Maverick Wave apparatus designed to evoke motions surfers confront in the ocean’s gargantuan, 70 to 100 feet high, maverick waves, with power and turbulence.

FAILING FORWARD, AGAIN is possible with major public support from the National Endowment for the Arts, New York State Council on the Arts, and the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs; lead foundation support from Bloomberg Philanthropies, Booth Ferris Foundation, Doris Duke Charitable Foundation, Fan Fox and Leslie R. Samuels Foundation, Harkness Foundation for Dance, Howard Gilman Foundation, Hyde & Watson Foundation, Investors Bank Foundation, M&T Bank Foundation, Mertz Gilmore Foundation, James E.
