With bravura theatrical impact – mesmerizing soundscapes, riveting silences, stunning stage effects – and technical virtuosity, one of China’s premiere contemporary dance companies boldly stretches the boundaries of the human physical form.
Choreographer Tao Ye’s creations begin as seemingly simple physical exploration and subtly morph into areas of expansive muscular intricacy and interminably affecting depth. After a sold out run at the Lincoln Center Festival in 2012, TAO Dance Theater remounts 4 and premieres a brand new piece, 5.
