Ambitious, Thought-provoking, Original, Intense, Edgy

See it if you enjoy or want to discover performance genres (dance theater, contemporary circus, butoh) and see world-class companies on stage in NYC.

Don't see it if you prefer more traditional fare.

Ambitious, Entertaining, Dizzying, Intense, Profound

See it if you want a cross-section of the best in avant-garde international theatre, music & dance.

Don't see it if you don't like adventurous performing arts. You must try more than one show to experience it, as the offerings can be a mixed bag.
