PEAK Performances
The Company brings the world premiere of Curriculum II. Conceived and directed by artistic director, Jones, choreographed by Jones with associate artistic director Janet Wong and the Company, Curriculum II described in the release as “A poetic quilt of text, narration as philosophical lecture, live singing, and soundscore, Curriculum II features the rich archive of Jones’s movement phrases, which are mostly non-theatrical, non-psychological, non-narrative, and made with the intention of clarity and form.” Jones adds, “I have oscillated between two or more polarities my entire career: love, mortality, and what it means to be human.” Curriculum II is also a highlight of the Company’s 40th Anniversary Season.
