Pilobolus returned to The Joyce Theater in New York City for a three-week residency from July 23 to August 11, 2024 as part of the re:CREATION tour. In addition to classic and contemporary pieces, two programs–Dreams and Memory–featured two new NYC premieres, including the women’s duet, “Bloodlines,” featuring Marlon Feliz and Hannah Klinkman, and a full-company piece entitled “Tales from the Underworld,” which included live music performance by composter and collaborator Stuart Bogie.

“From the first minute to the last, we were amazed by the troupe's grace, athleticism, control, and the creativity that defines their works. We applaud Executive/Co-Artistic Director, Renee Jaworski and Artistic Director, Matt Kent for their impressive leadership.” - Broadway World Review

“The wholly original Pilobolus reliably delivers visually appealing theatrical dances that combine whimsy and a muscular physicality. For its three-week summer engagement at the Joyce, titled “re:CREATION,” the company presents two distinct programs drawing from its broad repertory built over more than half a century, as well as a few works new to New York audiences.” - New York Times

“…this season Pilobolus brought two brilliant programs, Dreams and Memory, with works that probed deeply into love, friendship, society and, of course, sexuality, including their 1978 masterpiece, “Untitled.”” - Theatrescene.net

“For “re:CREATION,” artistic directors Renée Jaworski and Matt Kent crafted two unique programs paying homage to its agility, athleticism and timeless repertoire.” - New York Daily News

“The inventive, high-energy dance company Pilobolus has been around for more than 50 years and continues to captivate audiences with every performance.” - CBS News
