The Dreamer. The Socialite. The Boss. The Con. In “Domino,” 13 unique personalities converge in an interplay that establishes a hierarchy of vulnerability and influence.
Inspired by the “brain in a vat” thought experiment, where experiences are simply figments in a disembodied brain, Proxy leaves the repetitious, unexamined world, to discover what lies behind the veil of the reality accepted as truth…

CDP2, the pre-professional company of Crash Dance Productions, performs in their first full-length contemporary dance concert. Performing excerpts from “We Become Silhouettes” (2014), “A Wave of Two Sides” (2016), and “You Are Here” (2016), dancers bring new perspectives and creative contributions to reimagined company repertory. Featuring live music.
In zer0, chaos is a void defined by the order it lacks. Dancers move through contrasting periods of darkness and light, guided by illuminated body lights, embodying structures that codify the chaos. Incorporating principles from relativity to dark energy, seemingly paradoxical theories are actualized by acceding that, in an expanding universe, even nothingness is something.
Inspired by principles of phenomenology, universal laws, existentialism, and determinism, You Are Here seeks to identify the fleeting, reflective conscious under lenses of the past and the future. If the universe is absolute, and time is independent, consciousness becomes the process in which we assign meaning to the world around us, forming a reality convoluted by interpretation. But time moves both ways, turning even a moment of awareness into a web of then and now, of there and here.
Our waking experiences and deepest thoughts are brought to vivid intersection each night when we close our eyes and leave our conscious selves. At its best, a restorative eutopia; at its worst, an exhausting infinitude, the sleeping mind creates an alternate universe embedded within the brain’s electrical impulses. Featuring a company of fourteen dancers, {IN}SOMNO marvels at the breadth of the subconscious and uncovers exactly where we go, in sleep.

Featuring a company of 13 dancers, 24 Palms navigates the systems of the human body through their structures, functions, and harmonies. Even in dysfunction, the human body is so complete in design that these systems are able to survive in a state of careful—but powerful—coordination.
Drawing inspiration from Leonardo Da Vinci's "Vitruvian Man," in which the ideal proportions of a human are presented in a balance of art and science, 24 Palms explores the scientific knowledge we have attained while marveling at the universe that exists within each of us.
