[size=x-large]More about the company[/size]
[size=medium][font=Merriweather, serif]Trisha Brown Dance Company has presented the work of its legendary artistic director for 40 years. Founded in 1970 when Trisha Brown branched out from the experimental Judson Dance Theater to work with her own group of dancers, TBDC offered its first performances at alternative sites in Manhattan’s SoHo. Today, the Company is regularly seen in the landmark opera houses of New York, Paris, London, and many other theaters around the world. The repertory has grown from solos and small group pieces to include major evening-length works and collaborations between Ms. Brown and renowned visual artists.

In 1998, TBDC co-produced Ms. Brown’s first opera, Montiverdi’s Orfeo, in partnership with Belgium’s national opera house, La Monnaie. The opera toured to several major European sites, received its New York premiere in 1999, and was revived at La Monnaie in May 2002 and again in July 2007 at Festival d’Aix. The Company also participated in a production of Luci Mie Traditrici, composed by Salvatore Sciarrino, seen at La Monnaie and the Lincoln Center Festival 2001. TBDC joined forces with Lincoln Center again in December 2002 to present Winterreise, featuring Company dancers and Simon Keenlyside singing the Franz Schubert song-cycle. In 2006, Ms. Brown revisited the music of Salvatore Sciarrino, directing Da Gelo a Gelo for the Schwetzingen Festival.

In addition to the fields of dance and opera, Trisha Brown is a prolific visual artist. Her drawings have been featured in both domestic and international exhibitions, including White Cube in London and Documenta 12 in Kassel, Germany. In 2007-2008, the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis presented The Year of Trisha, seamlessly melding her visual artwork with dance. The year of events featured Ms. Brown’s works on paper in an exhibit titled, Trisha Brown: So That the Audience Does Not Know Whether I have Stopped Dancing. The year included performances of Set and Reset Reset, a restaging project with University of Minnesota dance students, followed by TBDC repertory performances and lectures, culminating in an afternoon of Early Works outdoor performances in the Walker’s sculpture garden that were originally performed in Minneapolis’ Loring Park in the early 1970’s. The Early Works program then traveled to Paris at the Louvre’s Tuileries Gardens. Through these unique experiences, Ms. Brown continues to permeate artistic barriers, proving that she is truly a poly-disciplinary artist. 

The Company of eight dancers performs in New York and tours worldwide each year, offering unique and inspiring performances each season. Every theater offers the chance to introduce Trisha Brown’s work to local audiences in tailored packages that can include master classes, lectures, and informal demonstrations that enhance the Company performances, and outreach programs that help performing arts centers form links with community groups. Classes for elementary and secondary school students offer a hands-on experience of Ms. Brown’s process, de-mystifying the world of postmodern art. 

From 2001-2008, the TBDC operated out of a 16,000 square foot space on West 55th Street in Manhattan that contained four large studios and office space. During this time, the Company offered its FOUNDSpace program which, with the support of the New York State Council on the Arts, offered subsidized rehearsal rates to hundreds of non-profit dance organizations. The four studios at the space also played home to all Company rehearsals and weekly, open technique classes on the Trisha Brown style and repertory, as well as intensives and weekend workshops. 

TBDC also maintains an outstanding Education Program, providing aspiring dancers and young professionals with training in postmodern dance. The Education Program offers classes in technique, repertory, and improvisation, as well as workshops with world-renowned guest artists, as well as fosters the preservation of TBDC’s repertory through restaging projects with Lyon Opera Ballet and Paris Opera Ballet along with universities including Belgium’s professional training program P.A.R.T.S., London Contemporary Dance School, Mills College, University of Illinois-Urbana-Champaign, and New York University.[/font][/size]
