With a nod to classical icons of cinema, choreographer/performers Art Bridgman and Myrna Packer blend live camera, hand-drawn animation, and prerecorded urban settings to create multi-layered perspectives and surreal mindscapes amid a highly sensual alchemy of the live and the virtual. Video by Peter Bobrow, music by Ken Field, animation by Karen Aqua, and lighting design by Frank DenDanto III.

Including a performance of the company’s acclaimed work, "Under the Skin," with live music by Ken Field
