Congratulations to Candoco Dance Company on their Bessie Award nomination!
Their performance of "Set and Reset/Reset" at the Brooklyn Academy of Music was nominated for Outstanding Revival. We're thrilled for Trisha's work to live on in new forms.
This project was directed by TBDC Alumni Abigail Yager and co-directed by TBDC Alumni Jamie Scott.
Learn more about the work and their process here.
Earlier this month, Tekla Fabrics created a collection of pajamas inspired by Trisha's 1971 Roof Piece. We were thrilled to collaborate with them on the project, and infuse the improvisational score into the pajamas.
TBDC Alumni Jamie Scott worked on set with model Lily McMenamy to provide movement direction. Additionally, TBDC was asked to create their own TikTok in and around New York City.
Catch dancers Jennifer Payán, Jamie Scott and Hsiao-Jou Tang wearing the 'Red Collection' here.
The full 'Red Collection' is available to view here.

This coming week Ballet de Lorraine premieres Trisha Brown’s Twelve Ton Rose (1996)!
Over the past many months, TBDC Alumni Kathleen Fisher, Trina Warren, Abigail Yager and Ming-Lung Yang have been restaging this 1996 work on the company.
Discover the work March 2-6 at the Opéra national de Lorraine!
On December 3 & 4, 2021, in a coproduction by La Villette and Festival d'Automne à Paris, around a hundred performers from the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Paris (CNSMDP) paid homage to Trisha Brown. Reconstituted in the form of a unique combination of extracts, and drawn from a repertory of over a hundred pieces, audiences were be given the opportunity to discover or rediscover a body of work, performed by a new generation of artists, which has lost none of its impact in today's world. In collaboration with the Trisha Brown Dance Company, the restaging was done by TBDC Alumni Kathleen Fisher and Dai Jian.
The hour long performance is available to stream through Arte, here.
