BODYTRAFFIC Digital Program Book

BODYTRAFFIC MARCH 1 - 6, 2022

Season Sponsor:

Welcome to The Joyce’s Spring/Summer ’22 season!

This past September, we were elated to reopen our doors after 18 months of distance. We welcomed 10 extraordinary companies and thousands of audience members back for live performances. While the necessary intermission this winter kept our artists, audiences, and staff safe, we continued to look to the exciting new programs on the horizon.

Today, we are happy to have you in the theater as BODYTRAFFIC opens our season with a captivating program infused with the creative spirit of its Los Angeles home. Our Director of Programming, Aaron Mattocks, has put together a robust season that showcases the vitality of our dance community, and we are grateful that you have joined us at the start of this exciting journey.

This year, we celebrate the landmark anniversary seasons of some of New York’s most influential companies. The Limón Dance Company marks its 75th year by sharing José Limón's inspiring life story through works old and new, while Trisha Brown Dance Company honors Brown’s creative partnership with visual artist Robert Rauschenberg to commemorate its 50 years. Both celebrating their 35th anniversary seasons, Ronald K. Brown/EVIDENCE and Doug Varone and Dancers revisit us with continued vibrancy for their New York season.

Also returning to our stage, Trinity Irish Dance Company plays at the intersection of the rhythmic sensibilities of Irish step and American tap, with a new work by Michelle Dorrance and Melinda Sullivan. L.A. Dance Project returns with a mixed bill specially curated by Artistic Director Benjamin Millepied, while Stephen Petronio Company offers moving meditations, featuring live music by The Young People’s Chorus of New York City. For our balletomanes, The Sarasota Ballet brings celebrated works of Sir Frederick Ashton and a world premiere by Jessica Lang.

Postponed premieres finally make their way to our stage this season with reinvigorated visions.

Christopher Williams offers a program of his own original queer versions of legendary ballets from the Ballets Russes era. In a new Joyce Theater Production, New York City Ballet principal dancer Sara Mearns invites new collaborators into her artistic orbit in a series of works that span mediums and transcend genres. Celebrating their first appearance at The Joyce, Paul Taylor Dance Company draws a line from the Company’s beginnings to its future with groundbreaking early works from the choreographer’s canon.

Paving the way for female tap artists, Michela Marino Lerman fuses tap improvography with live jazz and music performance in Once Upon a Time Called Now, featuring her unique ensemble Love Movement. The incomparable Dormeshia reaches for new heights in her latest work, Rhythm Is Life. Working within the rich, percussive traditions of flamenco, Noche Flamenca & Soledad Barrio discover fresh techniques in their return to The Joyce. With a stellar international cast, Flamenco Vivo Carlota Santana presents the world premiere of FRONTERAS, choreographed by José Maldonado and Karen Lugo.

Later this season, our international presentations bring their distinct styles to our Chelsea home. New Zealand’s Black Grace returns with a program melding contemporary influences and traditional Pacific dances. Spain’s Compania Nacional de Danza, under the direction of former New York City Ballet principal Joaquin de Luz, makes its Joyce debut with a reimagining of Carmen. This summer, audience favorites return as Ballet Tech honors its founder Eliot Feld with Kids Dance classics. MOMIX blends illusion, acrobatics, and whimsy in ALICE, inspired by Lewis Carroll’s tales of Wonderland, while Rennie Harris draws upon themes of healing and redemption from the tale of Oliver Twist in his latest work LIFTED. A season of endless possibilities – we are thrilled to have audiences back in New York’s home for dance. Enjoy!

Sincerely, Linda Shelton, Executive Director

DIRECTOR'S NOTE There's nothing quite like coming home. Growing up in NYC, I dreamt of performing on The Joyce stage, and each time our company returns is incredibly meaningful. This feels like a particularly special moment for BODYTRAFFIC, as we have spent the past two years reimagining our company and implementing big changes. This week, I am proud to present our strongest company yet, performing works in which I believe so deeply.

Our program kicks off with the world premiere of The One to Stay With by Baye & Asa. Working with Sam Pratt and Amadi Washington has been a dream, and they have brought out the best of our dancers in this powerful work. SNAP by Micaela Taylor, (d)elusive minds by Fernando Hernando Magadan, and PACOPEPEPLUTO by Alejandro Cerrudo make up a program (of audience favorites) which shares what we at BODYTRAFFIC love most: dance that enlivens and connects us.

Here's to the return of live performing arts, the strength of our dance community, and the resilience of the artists I have the pleasure of calling my family. I am filled with gratitude for our dancers, our staff, our board, Guzmán, Callen and Margaret (and the SELBY/ARTISTS MGMT team); Linda, Aaron, Andy, Jeff, Billy and everyone at The Joyce; and the unmatched NYC audiences. Thank you to Brian, Rachel, Dora, Burke, Michael, and my forever mentor, Michele. And finally, a special shout out to Guz's and my greatest loves, Jack and Sofia, who serve as the ultimate inspiration, and to our endlessly supportive parents who make it all possible.

With big apple love, Tina Finkelman Berkett BODYTRAFFIC, Artistic Director

THE ONE TO STAY WITH: CHOREOGRAPHERS' NOTE The Company is incentivized towards perpetual growth.

The Company develops relationships with politicians and regulatory agencies, lobbying for legislative language that protects their constant growth.

The Company language is parroted until fabrication becomes fact.

The Company’s profit margins are built on theft: of natural resources, human labor, and life.

You don’t make a billion dollars, you steal a billion dollars.

(d)elusive minds is an original Korzo production in collaboration with Nederlands Dans Theater. (d)elusive minds is based on the true story of Santiago, a mental patient with Capgras Delusion, a type of Schizophrenia where the person becomes convinced that a family member has been replaced by an identical imposter. In a delusional fit, Santiago killed his wife, whom he deeply loved. For the following fifteen years he spent in prison, he wrote a letter to his wife every single day, convinced she was still alive.

Today, he is still looking for his wife. Inspired by this story and many other extraordinary stories, this work explores the line between reality and fiction, health and insanity, and the deceiving characteristics of appearances.

Premiered on November 13, 2014 - Korzo/NDT

ABOUT THE COMPANY BODYTRAFFIC uses the creative spirit of its Los Angeles home as a backdrop for delivering performances that inspire audiences around the globe to simply love dance.

The company attracts skilled dancers from throughout the world who have trained at such places as The Juilliard School and the School of American Ballet, and its enviable repertory includes the works of stellar contemporary choreographers like Kyle Abraham, Ohad Naharin, Fernando Magadan, Sidra Bell, Victor Quijada, Hofesh Shechter, and Micaela Taylor. This combination of superb artists and highly creative choreographers has elicited numerous critical accolades, including one from the Los Angeles Times which described BODYTRAFFIC as “one of the most talked about companies—not just in LA, but nationwide.”

Since its founding in 2007 by Artistic Director Tina Finkelman Berkett and her co-founder Lillian Barbeito, BODYTRAFFIC has preserved its place at the forefront of the concert dance world with a style that, according to The Boston Globe, “suggests invention,

attitude, and urban edge,” an aesthetic that has led to appearances at many prestigious international theaters and festivals. In 2015, the company was selected by the Obama administration to be United States cultural ambassadors to Israel and Jordan through DanceMotion USA, a program of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs of the US State Department that sought to engage international audiences through educational opportunities, cultural exchange, and performance. BODYTRAFFIC also served as cultural ambassadors of the United States in South Korea (2016), Algeria (2017-2018), and Indonesia (2018).

In 2016, the company made its Hollywood Bowl debut when it performed with the Los Angeles Philharmonic and, during the 2017-2018 season, it went on to celebrate its 10th anniversary season with an international tour to more than 20 cities, including Moscow and St. Petersburg for the CONTEXT Diana Vishneva Festival, and The Hague for The Holland Dance Festival. The celebratory season culminated with performances at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Beverly Hills, where BODYTRAFFIC is honored to be the current company-in-residence.

BODYTRAFFIC’s extensive outreach and education programs are essential to its commitment to ensuring that dance endures for both the artists and the audiences of the next generation. Touching lives in Los Angeles and beyond, the company provides training opportunities for pre-professional and professional dancers, as well as customized dance experiences for all people, with an emphasis on sharing the art form with underserved and diverse populations.

For more than fourteen years, BODYTRAFFIC has exhibited the talent, devotion, and discipline necessary for preserving the art form. As it looks forward to a future filled with even more dance, the company thanks those who have supported it along the way. www.BODYTRAFFIC.com

WHO'S WHO IN THE COMPANY ARTISTIC LEADERSHIP TINA FINKELMAN BERKETT, Artistic Director and a Founder of BODYTRAFFIC, is an influential dance leader and community builder, producing original, compelling repertoire and sharing a new vision of dance across the U.S. and around the world.

Tina grew up in New York City attending Stuyvesant High School of Math and Science and graduating summa cum laude from Barnard College, Columbia University with a double major in Mathematics and Economics. Her love of dance was ignited by her teacher and mentor, Michele Cuccaro Cain.

Tina’s professional dance career began at Aszure Barton & Artists, a distinguished contemporary dance company where she quickly became a featured dancer and then Barton’s assistant, teaching both in the U.S. and abroad. A true highlight of Tina's career was being a founding member of Mikhail Baryshnikov's Hell's Kitchen Dance and touring internationally alongside Mr. Baryshnikov himself. Tina began her interest in arts administration when she served as the company's dancer liaison.

In 2007, Tina relocated to Los Angeles and launched BODYTRAFFIC with Lillian Barbeito. Now serving as the company's sole Artistic Director, Tina is focusing on reenvisioning and revitalizing BODYTRAFFIC. With her deep commitment to taking the company to new heights, she is discovering exciting choreographers and curating challenging programs that audiences enjoy, seeing incredible dancers doing their best work. "BODYTRAFFIC is a home for dancers, choreographers, and dance-lovers of all ages. We’re excited about the future and touring again!”

ABOUT THE JOYCE THEATER FOUNDATION The Joyce Theater Foundation ("The Joyce," Executive Director, Linda Shelton), a nonprofit organization, has proudly served the dance community for over three decades. Under the direction of founders Cora Cahan and Eliot Feld, Ballet Tech Foundation acquired and The Joyce renovated the Elgin Theater in Chelsea. Opening as The Joyce Theater in 1982, it was named in honor of Joyce Mertz, beloved daughter of LuEsther T. Mertz. It was LuEsther’s clear, undaunted vision and abundant generosity that made it imaginable and ultimately possible to build the theater. Ownership was secured by The Joyce in 2015. The theater is one of the only theaters built by dancers for dance and has provided an intimate and elegant home for over 400 U.S.-based and international companies. The Joyce has also expanded its reach beyond its Chelsea home through off-site presentations at venues ranging in scope from Lincoln Center’s David H. Koch Theater, to Brooklyn’s Invisible Dog Art Center, and to outdoor programming in spaces such as Hudson River Park. To further support the creation of new work, The Joyce maintains longstanding commissioning and residency programs. Local students and teachers (K–12th grade) benefit from its school program, and family and adult audiences get closer to dance with access to artists.

The Joyce’s annual season of about 48 weeks of dance now includes over 340 performances for audiences in excess of 150,000 patrons. Visit Joyce.org for more information.

FUNDERS Many Thanks to The Joyce's Institutional Funders for Keeping Us Moving Forward An abundance of gratitude to Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, Representative Jerrold Nadler, and Representative Nydia M.

ABOUT THE JOYCE THEATER FOUNDATION VISION STATEMENT

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

The Joyce Theater Foundation is committed to fostering and supporting a diverse and inclusive environment, both on and off stage. We embrace and celebrate diversity in all its forms, and value the rich experiences and perspectives that arise from differences in race, ethnicity, socio-economic status, religion, age, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, and cognitive and physical ability.

The Joyce Theater operates on the Lenape island of Manhahtaan (Mannahatta) and acknowledges that it was founded upon the stolen land and erasure of many Indigenous communities. This acknowledgement demonstrates our institution’s commitment to the process of dismantling the legacies of colonialism and cultural imperialism.

We strive to counteract the social injustices and racism that exist within our communities, our nation, and our world. Our aim as an organization is to embody the principles of diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice.

To achieve this, we will:

We acknowledge the ongoing violence towards Indigenous people through systemic inequality. We pay our respect to the Indigenous peoples who lived and continue to live upon this land, and whose rich history, artistic practices, and spirituality are tied to this land. It is within our responsibility as a cultural institution and our commitment to diversity and inclusion to embody a commitment to Indigenous rights and cultural equity.

• Create and implement proactive diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice initiatives; • Establish and maintain a culture of safe sharing, intentional listening, learning, and growth; • Engage with and support disenfranchised communities by sharing information and resources and ensuring accessibility; • Develop metrics and conduct regular reviews of our programs and policies to hold ourselves accountable and shift as neededs.

We sincerely invite you as an audience member to take a moment to reflect on the history and legacy of displacement, migration, and settlement.

It is our intention to work with local Native American arts councils to better inform our land acknowledgment practices and anticipate that it will evolve over time.

With these goals in place and our Vision Statement in mind, we are dedicated to the continued learning and growth needed to foster an inclusive environment for all. This is an ongoing process and by nature will be an evolving statement.
