REPERTORY HIGHLIGHTS
KITH
We were once like family. But now? It's hard to hold a stranger's hand. Even if you've known them all your life. You can't go home. KITH is a mapping of our bodies - a human story of chance, nature, compulsion, habit, reason and kinship. Sep 2017 Philly Fringe Festival
LINEAR DEFAULT
A rope, an audience, and a stage full of dancers. What is the connection? Linear Default engages us with sequences, where variables alter both sides. Sep 2016 Philly Fringe Festival

Inspired by lost histories so true they seem fictional, As Pretty Does asks the question of what it is to be human. Taking the audience on a journey of provoking movement and humor where micro-storytelling meets pure dance. Sep 2013 Philly Fringe Festival
