The Downstairs Theatre

Jesse Zaritt & Pamela Pietro
dance for no ending
This dance is a prayer, if prayer can be understood as a petition to the unknown, an action that makes space for wonder and bewilderment.

Jordan Demetrius Lloyd
Mooncry
Lloyd’s most recent work, premiering this April, is built from formal foundations focusing on exactitude of shape, energetics, and tone. The carefully composed duet empowers in-betweenness, expanding and collapsing scale on a whim, creating spaces of liminality and unsettled beauty.
