NYC Arts: The Complete Guide to Art and Culture

Founded in 1981, the company presents the choreography of Elisa Monte and bridges cultural barriers through the universal language of dance. From its earliest recognition on the world stage in 1982 as “best company” at the International Dance Festival of Paris, the company has succeeded for over two decades. The work of Elisa Monte, a former principal dancer with Martha Graham Dance Company and Pilobolus, is widely recognized for its highly athletic and sensual style, as well as its technical and physical acuity, exploring a multitude of topics and themes.

The company has performed in over 40 nations throughout tour continents and appears regularly at the Joyce Theater in New York.
