Join us for a performance by Bodies in Play. The group creates melodramatic Plays in which their Bodies further the narrative through dance and movement.
Bodies in Play is a LA-based performance collective founded by Andrew Pearson in 2017 as a platform to interrogate existing models for producing dance and performance. The group creates melodramatic Plays in which their Bodies further the narrative through dance and movement. Catered to the socially conscious and playfully minded, their work is best viewed through a lens just queer of center, disarming audiences with pop theatricality and inviting a challenge to conformity. The company works with an ever-expanding and rotating roster of artists including dancers, actors, musicians, and designers. At Brand, the collective will be presenting work developed collectively by Lisa Bierman, Darby Epperson, Cristina Florez, Celine Kiner, Andrew Pearson, Tiffany Sweat, Daurin Tavares, Rachel Whiting, and Sadie Yarrington.
This series, curated by acclaimed choreographer, teacher and producer Jamie Nichols, presents top dance companies from Southern California performing site-specific work in non-traditional performance spaces around Brand Library.
The Dance Series performances are sponsored by the Brand Associates.
