“Mix one part Stretch Armstrong, one part Nadia Comaneci and one part hallucination, and you've got yourself the ingredients for a concert with Pilobolus. Formed almost 40 years ago, the company continues to amaze and inspire with their wildly imaginative dances fueled by humor, athleticism and a charming sense of whimsy. A longtime favorite on the modern dance circuit, Pilobolus always delights audiences of all ages and with their LA presentation, they'll be bringing back some of their hits from the past as well as some very recent creations.”
Allen Moon, Flavorpill
Pilobolus began as an experiment among three men and one open-minded professor in a Dartmouth College dance class in 1971. From these humble, exploratory beginnings has emerged an innovative dance company that combines athleticism, grace and humor with an inspirational sense of harmony. Still evolving after 38 years, Pilobolus bridges pop culture and the cultural arts to create an unforgettable experience.
Performances include RUSHES, a mesmerizing piece combining the company's renowned physicality with its playful attitude, along with REDLINE, an examination of the beauty and futility of physical battle, offering a breath-taking display of the intense athleticism that earns Pilobolus praise by both the dance-lover and dance-novice alike.
"...seductive in body, whimsical in mind."
