Dance Series

Kevin Williamson + Company

“super” is a new site-specific dance work from Kevin Williamson + Company exploring stories and movements of heroic women. Inspired by archetypes, fearless family members, courageous teachers, and strangers who embody, thrive, reimagine, complicate, and subvert the status quo, “super” celebrates the full and multifaceted personalities of women who shape our lives. With original music by Anna Luisa Pestriko and performances from LA super-movers Heidi Brewer, Jen Hong, Kate Hutter, Devon Frost, Jasmine Jawato, Alexx Shilling, Alexandria Yalj, “super” takes over Brand Library & Art Center with imaginative solos, ensemble dancing, and spoken text.
