Originally presented as a half-evening work at The Joyce in 2010, Andrea Miller’s WONDERLAND has been critically acclaimed, expanded, and toured overseas, but it has never been seen by New York audiences in its full-length version.
WONDERLAND’s physical exploration of pack mentality remains as relevant as ever. Imagining the inner life of a herd, sometimes moving in unison and sometimes hosting the uncoordinated drive of self-serving individuals, the work hints at psychological, emotional, and existential tensions of the everyday. Animal instincts, collective terrors, and colorful appetites unleash into a shapeshifting playground of ironies.
“Gutsy. Wild. Smart. Original. Andrea Miller has her own unmistakable voice.”
- Wendy Perron for Dance Magazine

With deep gratitude and admiration, we honor David R. Parker, whose remarkable leadership and boundless generosity have been a guiding light for GALLIM. David’s decade of service on our Board, including his dedicated time as Board Chair, has strengthened our community and helped us thrive through transformative times. His wisdom, kindness, and steadfast support have left an indelible mark on our organization, inspiring everyone who has the joy of working with him. David, we celebrate you as a cherished friend, visionary leader, and true champion of GALLIM. Thank you for your heart and for believing in our journey.
I would like to express my admiration to Linda Shelton, Danni Gee, and the entire Joyce community for their visionary leadership and dedication to the dance field, which has been very meaningful in GALLIM’s journey. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to GALLIM’s Board, and especially to David R. Parker, who has served on the board for the past eleven years, including the last three as our esteemed chair. I am thrilled to honor him at this season’s Gala Benefit. David’s unshakable commitment to philanthropy and brilliant guidance has steered GALLIM through some of our most pivotal moments. His contributions have left an indelible mark on our path, making it possible for the Company to realize its mission. Thank you, Marian Davis, this season would not have been possible without your belief in GALLIM and your incredible generosity. An important recognition is due to the many dancers, collaborators, administrators, generous supporters and audiences that have contributed so much to the work, GALLIM, and my life. So much love is due to my family – my mother Irena, my husband JuanFe, and my inspiring children.

The Joyce Theater Foundation ("The Joyce," Executive Director, Linda Shelton), a nonprofit organization, has proudly served the dance community for more than four 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 475 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 (1st–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 300 performances for audiences of over 100,000. Visit Joyce.org for more information.
An abundance of gratitude to Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, Representative Jerrold Nadler, and Representative Nydia M. Velázquez for their visionary leadership that established the Shuttered Venue Operators Grant program, which made the reopening of The Joyce Theater in 2021 and the reemergence of many dance companies possible.

The Joyce Theater is a member of APAP, Dance/NYC, and Dance/USA.
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 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.
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.
