Join Us this Thursday - Saturday for Monte / Muller MOVE!
![]() Elisa Monte Dance and Jennifer Muller/The Works join forces to present three shared program performances of Monte / Muller MOVE! These two experienced and distinguished choreographers create work with powerful and highly original voices. Now at the height of their creative careers, they are presenting a diverse selection of work, including recent premieres and brand-new works.
Monte / Muller Move! offers the opportunity to experience two acclaimed dance companies together on one stage. June 20 - 22, 7:30pm | New York Live Arts Purchase Tickets As choreographers, they are distinctly different but share the sensibility of creating work that combines virtuosic movement with an expressive edge that touches the heart - work that dances full out yet speaks of both individual experiences and shared humanity.
