IT’S TIME TO BE IN THE ROOM AGAIN. To feel that collective breath, the shared silence, the spontaneous applause that erupts when something extraordinary happens onstage. Thank you for being here tonight— thank you for choosing to show up, to engage, and to be part of something live. Creating moments of awe—like the one you’re about to experience tonight—is what makes the TITAS/DANCE UNBOUND season so unique. It’s international. It’s deeply curated. It’s intentionally designed to connect across cultures, communities, and generations. These artists speak through movement. And while it can be hard to put into words, what they create is undeniable when you’re in the room. Diverse. Global. Powerful. Surprising. Moving. That’s the magic of TITAS. Again, nothing replaces the live experience. We’re proud to contribute to the international profile of Dallas. We celebrate our adventurous, curious, and passionate audiences. And we recognize the immense value that cultural exchange and the arts bring to our communities. This is the heart of TITAS—it’s how we help shape and elevate the cultural landscape of North Texas. And every season, new audience members tell us the same thing:
"I’m overwhelmed—I had no idea. This was not what I expected." That reaction? It never gets old. It’s Golden. After more than four decades of presenting groundbreaking dance, we know the power of what happens when world-class artists meet open-hearted audiences. And the 2025/26 season will not disappoint. Ten extraordinary companies from the U.S., Spain, Canada, Taiwan, and France— including three making their Texas or U.S. debut right here in Dallas. Breathtaking artistry, thrilling athleticism, unforgettable performances. This is a season you won’t want to miss. So thank you. Thank you for being part of another remarkable year. Thank you for saying yes to live performance. Thank you for supporting TITAS/DANCE UNBOUND and the AT&T Performing Arts Center. What we do together truly makes a difference.

Support for Pilobolus’s participation in GRAHAM100 comes from Sergei Denham’s Ballet Foundation.

WHO’S WHO IN THE COMPANY RENÉE JAWORSKI (Executive/Co-Artistic Director) Renée has been an indelible force in Pilobolus’s artistic landscape since joining as a dancer in 2000. A performer who captivated audiences worldwide, her magnetic stage presence laid the foundation for an expansive creative career. In 2011, she was chosen to lead Pilobolus’s post-succession evolution, becoming Artistic Director, and in 2022, she became the company’s first Executive Director with an intimate dance background. Her choreographic experience has been extensive and pioneering, crafting pieces reflecting her innovative dance and theater approach. Her exceptional work spans various platforms, from the 79th Annual Academy Awards to the Grammy®-nominated video for OK Go’s “All is Not Lost,” as well as overseeing prestigious projects like Radiolab Live: In the Dark and the World Science Festival, Time and the Creative Cosmos. The University of the Arts honored her with the Silver Star Alumni Award, and her collaborative work on Round House Theatre’s production of The Tempest, directed by Aaron Posner and Teller, earned Pilobolus the Helen Hayes Award for Outstanding Choreography in a Play in 2023.

His work has appeared on the Academy Awards, Conan O’Brien, Penn & Teller’s Fool Us, Wetten, dass..?, and multiple television commercials.

ROBBY BARNETT (Co-Founder, Choreographer) was born and raised in the Adirondack Mountains and attended Dartmouth College. He joined Pilobolus in 1971. MOSES PENDLETON (Co-Founder, Choreographer) has been one of America’s most innovative and widely performed choreographers for almost 50 years. A co-founder of the ground-breaking Pilobolus in 1971,
he formed his own company, MOMIX, in 1980, which rapidly established an international reputation for inventive and illusionistic choreography. Mr. Pendleton has also worked extensively in film, TV, and opera, and as a choreographer for ballet companies and special events, including two Winter Olympics. JONATHAN WOLKEN (1949-2010) (Co-Founder, Choreographer) cofounded Pilobolus and remained an Artistic Director until his death, creating 46 Pilobolus works in collaboration with co-artistic directors and guest artists, and as sole choreographer. He also choreographed Glyndebourne Festival Opera’s production of Maurice Sendak’s Where the Wild Things Are, and the Royal Danish Ballet’s Oneiric. Mr. Wolken taught many workshops and was dedicated to the furtherance of Pilobolus technique in dance and as a model for creative thinking. MARTHA GRAHAM (1894-1991) is recognized as a primal artistic force of the 20th Century. She was named “Dancer of the Century” by Time and has been compared with other creative giants such as Picasso, Einstein, Stravinsky and Freud. She created 181 ballets and a technique that revolutionized dance throughout the greater part of the past century. Using the founding principals of contraction and release, she built a vocabulary of movement to “increase the emotional activity of the dancer’s body,” exploring the depth and diversity of human emotion. Her ballets were inspired by a wide range of sources from the American frontier to Greek Mythology. She created and portrayed prominent women, including Clytemnestra, Jocasta, Medea, Phaedra, Joan of Arc and Emily Dickenson. During her 70 years of creating dance, she collaborated with other great artists – Noguchi, Copland, Barber and Schuman, and her mentor Louis Horst among others, and is recognized for her groundbreaking work in all aspects of the theater – use of time, space, lighting, costumes, sets and music. Her company was a training ground for many generations of choreographers including Cunningham, Taylor and Tharp. At the Neighborhood Playhouse, she is said to have changed the course of American acting through students such as Bette Davis, Gregory Peck, Tony Randall and Orson Wells. Her creative genius earned numerous honors and awards, including the Medal of Freedom
and the National Medal of the Arts. Martha Graham’s extraordinary legacy lives on in the work of the Martha Graham Dance Company, Ensemble and School, and in the students worldwide studying her technique and performing her masterworks. DERION LOMAN (Collaborator) launched his dance career at 19, blending a B.A. in Psychology and a B.F.A. in Dance from the University of California Santa Barbara into a vision where intellect meets movement. He first captivated audiences with Ballet Hispanico’s Second Company— including at the 2013 Presidential Inauguration—and later joined Pilobolus (2013–2017). Never content to rest on his laurels, Derion toured with Diavolo Architecture in Motion, earning recognition as a finalist on America’s Got Talent and as a divisional finalist on NBC’s World of Dance Season 3 and at the 2019 Emmy Awards. His creative influence has graced stages for Dallas Black Dance Theatre, Google, 2Point4 Dance Company, and more—culminating in a celebrated victory at the Pacific Northwest Ballet Film Festival. In 2024, he received the prestigious honor of being one of eight choreographers selected for the Ann & Weston Hicks Choreographic Fellowship, a testament to his relentless pursuit of artistic innovation. Expanding his creative reach, Derion served as the inaugural guest creative director for 3rd Angle New Music, where he was commissioned to design and choreograph groundbreaking work. He also extended his collaborative spirit globally by working with internationally known K-pop star Jackson Wang. Through his work, Derion deeply champions diversity, striving to leave audiences with the message, “All are welcome here.” PAUL SULLIVAN (Composer) has composed fifteen scores for Pilobolus since 1980. He has appeared as a conductor, performer, and composer on and off Broadway several times. Paul currently lives on the coast of Maine where he composes music for his own record label, River Music.
