Boston and New York based artists dance together in DANCE NOW Boston, curated and produced by The Bang Group (NYC).
About the Performance:
The Bang Group, a New York-based contemporary, rhythm-driven dance company directed by choreographer David Parker and dancer/director Jeffrey Kazin, presents the 12th season of DANCE NOW Boston. Parker and Kazin launched DANCE NOW Boston to create dynamic dance programs combining Boston and New York artists to build and sustain the community.
DNB generates lasting relationships between Boston and New York dance artists who thrive on mutual inspiration. Each season of DNB features artists from both cities in new commissioned work and cherished repertory. This season’s new initiative has Kelli Edwards commissioned to create a duet for Parker and Kazin in the tradition of Isadora Duncan.
Featured Choreographers:
David Parker and The Bang Group
Kelli Edwards
Sara Hook
Emily Jerant-Hendrickson
Kristin Wagner
Cassie Wang
Illinois-based dancemaker Sara Hook, whose work self-reflexively spotlights the nature of performance and the tragicomic way dancers and their works are perceived, guests in a duet co-created with Parker, a long-time collaborator.
Kristin Wagner/Bodies Moving presents MILK, which explores the intimate labor of feeding a baby, the cultural weight placed on bodies, and the struggles and joys of loving and nourishing ourselves and our children.
Cassie Wang presents SHEER (parcel of her breathing body), a solo performance that investigates containment, sociocultural conditioning, and the cycles and repetitions in which humans find themselves.
Emily Jerant-Hendrickson’s BECOMING reflects how it feels to move forward in seasons of change. Where progress faces resistance, this dance embodies openness, surrender and emergence as momentum reshapes and reroutes human behavior.

The Julie Ince Thompson Theatre (Studio 1) and pre/post-show reception space (Studio 7) are ADA compliant. There is a motorized lift that can bring one person at a time from the ground floor to the theater. There is no elevator. There are handicap accessible restrooms on both floors.
