REPERTORY/ ACTIVE REPERTORY

“Perfection in the park.” - Donald Hutera, The Times, London

Trisha Brown: In Plain Site pairs indoor and outdoor sites with select pieces from Brown’s repertory. Each work is restaged in a dynamic relationship to the setting, amplifying Trisha Brown’s effortless affinity for naturalizing movement to the physical environment.

Ever a resourceful and dexterous innovator, Brown “...said she felt sorry for spaces that weren’t centerstage - the ceiling, walls, corners, and wing space. Not to mention trees, lakes, and firehouses,” Wendy Perron wrote in Dance Magazine. “She caused a revolution by… turning to the spaces that other dance-makers don’t.” In parks, museums, and public squares, among other sites, audiences are engaged in the intimate, up-close experience of Brown’s choreography through specially chosen excerpts from the repertory.
