Seven Days Says:

The avant-garde dance troupe carries on a nearly half-century tradition with a new work, Rogues, as well as a few earlier pieces, such as For M.G.: The Movie and Astral Convertible.

Range of Motion

Trisha Brown is a choreographer by title, but her experimentations in space and movement suggest she’s a bit of a mad scientist, too. When she asks a dancer to walk, she asks him to walk down the side of a building. When she asks a dancer to improvise, she has 11 others mimic the gestures from New York City roof tops. Eccentric, inventive and almost always critically acclaimed, the Trisha Brown Dance Company further pushes the limits of physicality at the Flynn. With dance selections spanning the postmodern troupe’s four decades, Friday’s performance promises to be appropriately off the wall.
