Héctor Aristizábal
Conjuring a hallucinatory vision of his family, powerful performer Héctor Aristizábal weaves a harrowing tale about two of his brothers--one lost to AIDS and the other tortured and killed by a Colombian death squad. Created in collaboration with writer Diane Lefer, director BJ Dodge and featuring a soundscore by Andrea Lieberherr, In the Forest de/Lirios is a highly personal theatrical experience.

Madeleine Bernatchez
Striking imagery inspired by film noir is the starting point for Moonshine, an inventive performance in which the sounds of typewriters and footsteps swell into a percussive score, and the cast of actors and dancers is starkly lit or viewed in stunning silhouette as they explore themes of seduction, shadow and intrigue.

Rudy Perez Performance Ensemble
The rich and multi-layered movement vocabulary that has made Rudy Perez one of the region’s most respected dance pioneers is the driving force behind Double Play, a large ensemble piece created in collaboration with company member Stefan Fabry, composer Jeff Boynton and dramaturge Strawn Bovee, who blend the writings of Gertrude Stein with Perez’ dynamic movement.
