Description

In Plain Site sees Trisha Brown Dance Company and PS21 working together for the first time to bring a bespoke collection from the company’s repertoire into Chatham’s newly restored Masonic Hall at dusk, amplifying Brown’s endless affinity for naturalizing movement to the physical environment. 

For decades Brown’s work has fearlessly explored different relationships to space and site for dance. Never frozen, her work adapts profoundly to its environment, its time, and condition, allowing patterns of relationship, body, light, and space to play, repeat, and iterate.

“Brown felt sorry for spaces that weren’t centerstage – the ceiling, walls, corners, and wing space. Not to mention trees, lakes, and firehouses” Wendy Perron, Dance Magazine

About PS21

A vibrant center for contemporary performance in the Hudson Valley, PS21 “presents work that challenges and invites” (The New York Times): adventurous productions by leading and emerging American and international artists in music, dance, and theater, and visionaries creating entirely new genres. On our open-air Pavilion Theater stage, across our expansive, unspoiled grounds, and in the diverse surrounding communities, PS21 cultivates and presents productions that transcend aesthetic boundaries and revitalize existing artistic languages and grammars. Throughout the year, we host developmental residencies for dancers, musicians, actors, and creators of original, even unclassifiable new work. Rooted in community collaboration, PS21’s programming engages creatively with critical global and social issues. It is a mecca for innovative and original artistic voices, a destination for performance that can be experienced nowhere else in the region. PS21’s Pavilion Theater is a green-energy marvel surrounded by 100 acres of unspoiled meadows, trails, and woodlands that are a haven to wildlife and visitors across the region.  Integrated into our unspoiled campus, the theater embodies our commitments to the public: open, inviting, and optimized for their enjoyment and encouraging citizen expression and participation.
