Cultural partners Jacob’s Pillow Dance and MASS MoCA present KEIGWIN + COMPANY this weekend - April 11 and April 12 at the Hunter Center at MASS MoCA.
A favorite among dance audiences and critics, KEIGWIN + COMPANY will bring a mixed program featuring a variety of diverse contemporary works that embody the company’s signature wit, broad musicality, and profound emotional capacity.
Larry Keigwin started his performing career as a backup dancer on Club MTV’s Downtown Julie Brown, and has since gone on to worked with work with the pop band Fischerspooner, comedian Murray Hill, and as an associate choreographer for both The Radio City Rockettes and the Off-Broadway musical The Wild Party.
Keigwin also created his own Keigwin Kabaret, a fusion of modern dance, vaudeville, and burlesque presented by the Public Theater at Joe's Pub and by Symphony Space, and in 2010 staged Fashion’s Night Out: The Show, which featured over 150 of the industry’s top models and Vogue Magazine’s fall fashions. Commissions include choreography for the Works & Process performing arts series at the Guggenheim Museum, The Juilliard School, New York City Ballet’s Choreographic Institute, and the Martha Graham Dance Company, among many others.
Keigwin’s recent theatrical projects include choreography for the Broadway production of If/Then; Tales of the City at the American Conservatory Theatre in San Francisco and the Off-Broadway production of Jonathan Larson's RENT.
