Pilobolus Dance Theatre

Ezúttal csak nézni és olvasnivalót hoztam, de nem akármilyet. További látványos videók elérhetők a YouTube-on.

Pilobolus Dance Theatre (known simply as Pilobolus) is a nontraditional dance company to which each member of the ensemble contributes the multiple skills and talents of a dancer, acrobat, theater actor, and choreographer, altogether.

The group was established thirty-five years ago by four Ivy League college students without experience or training in dance. Yet what the founders lacked in the way of know-how was more than compensated by enthusiasm, inspiration, and willingness to improvise and take risks.

Over the years, Pilobolus created a unique dancing style with its own language of movement based on weight-sharing partnering techniques, and introduced a collaborative approach to dance-making, becoming a true phenomenon in the world of contemporary dance.
