With a mix of beloved classics and new works, Pilobolus invites you to explore your senses and the connections between the human body and our natural world. "Acrobatics are liquefied into poetry" (The New York Times) as bodies merge and part, roll and fly, creating seemingly impossible imagery that sparks absolute wonder. Come enter the wildly creative and amusing world of Pilobolus. At the Annenberg Center April 16 – 18, 2020. Photo Credit: Megan Moss Freedom

In the 19/20 season, the Annenberg Center and NextMove Dance create a special retrospective celebrating our exciting tradition of bringing the best in dance to our city. We showcase companies that have frequently graced our stage, including MOMIX, Pilobolus and Les Ballets Jazz de Montréal, all beloved audience favorites, and we honor the life and oeuvre of dance icon Paul Taylor in a tribute to some of his greatest masterpieces. PHILADANCO comes home for the holidays with an original Annenberg Center commission, one that’s been a local favorite for generations. We welcome back troupes that haven’t traveled to Philadelphia for far too long, including Tania Pérez-Salas Compañía de Danza and Trinity Irish Dance Company. And, we look to the future of dance in all its forms with the debuts of Stars of American Ballet and Ephrat Asherie Dance.
Join us as we celebrate and further our dance legacy.
