Watch the Trailer!!!

Three LA dance companies come together in a show about breaking apart, each premiering an original work about “Fracture” accompanied by live musical compositions from members of String Theory. Constructing their dance via Internet video from different geographic locations, fragmenting the amphitheatre space, and making "perfect unions at the outer limits of physical control" (L.A. Times): IN/EX, Invertigo, and Method approach the theme in their own unique styles.  A comedic pre-show in the entry plaza by Leonix Movement Theatre heralds the collaboration.
