Pilobolus: Rules @ Play

Pilobolus: Rules @ Play

92nd Street Y's Harkness Dance Festival Presents Rules @ Play's Pilobolus

Rules @ Play is a lively, interactive show created specifically for a youth audience. Throughout life we all encounter rules, and we usually view them negatively. Rules @ Play explores how rules actually present opportunities to solve problems and overcome challenges. They spark creativity and, in our case, give us tools to make dances. Fun, engaging and accessible, Pilobolus dancers perform and analyze four of the company’s favorite works through movement and discussion on and of stage, showcasing the benefits of playing by the rules.

As is to be expected from Pilobolus, this is not your average show. Pilobolus family shows are lively, interactive performances that entertain, engage and explore. They set out to expand the audience’s understanding not just of movement and dance, but of creativity and of art. Pilobolus family shows seek to help people of all ages think differently about what they see on stage and beyond.

The 92nd Street Y Harkness Dance Festival presents five artists over five weeks, from February 11 through March 20, 2016, including a performance for families and a photography exhibition.

Cost: $15-25
