2022 New York Season at The Joyce Theater
May 17, 2022 - May 22, 2022
2022 New York Season at The Joyce Theater
**Tickets will be available to the general public on Tuesday, January 11 at 12pm ET.**
Stephen Petronio Company offers this season as a call for connection and hope. Initially conceived as a moving meditation filmed during the Covid-19 lockdown, New New Prayer For Now bursts onto the stage as a newly completed world premiere. A bold and visceral dialogue between bodies, space and the viewer’s eye, this work is a collaboration with composer/performance artist Monstah Black, creating music based on the treasured songs ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’ and ‘Balm in Gilead’ performed live by The Young People’s Chorus of New York City (YPC), under the direction of Francisco Nunez. The company also brings a re-staging of Bloom (2006), a joyful and iconic collaboration with Rufus Wainwright and YPC singing compositions based on the poetry of Walt Whitman and Emily Dickinson. Rounding out the program is a Bloodlines nod to Petronio’s formidable lineage with a re-staging of Trisha Brown’s Group Primary Accumulation (1973), a quietly thrilling gestural masterpiece in Brown’s signature style.
