As a Founding Partner at Gibney Dance Center 280 Broadway, TBDC holds regular, ongoing classes for dancers in New York City to study the technique and repertory of Trisha Brown. Classes are lead by current dancers and TBDC alumni, allowing for a diverse range of pedagogies spanning decades of Trisha Brown's creative practice.

Join us for two workshops on Trisha Brown's technique prior to the October Audition! Sunday, September 4 - 12:00pm-4:00pm, GDC Studio B with Keith Thompson Sunday, September 18 - 10:00am-2:00pm, GDC Studio D with Mariah Maloney

TBDC will continue to teach on the first and third Wednesdays and Saturdays of the month, beginning in October. Mark your calendars with the following dates of times below, with teachers to be announced at a later date. All classes occur at Gibney Dance Center 280 Broadway Studio D.

This semester marks the beginning of our second year of partnership with Bard College--and we couldn't be more excited!
IN THE CLASSROOM
This fall we are taking a new approach to teaching Trisha Brown's work in the classroom. Rather than focusing on technique or restaging repertory, students this semester will move deeply into Brown's creative ideologies. In the spirit of Brown--open, light, and doggedly inquisitive--we will approach her work while cultivating her playful rigor. We are interested in big, wild physicality while driving into more formal applications of her dancing.
COMPANY RESIDENCY
TBDC will be in residence at the Fisher Center for the Performing Arts from September 5-9. As we actively prepare for our fall tour engagements, being in residence allows for more significant interaction with the campus population. Through open rehearsal visits and informal networking opportunities, students will get closer to the Company than ever before.

The Company's residency will include a showing of fall repertory selections on Thursday, September 8, at 7:30pm in the LUMA Theatre at the Fisher Center. We look forward to sharing our recent reconstruction, Geometry of Quiet (2002), along with selections from Opal Loop (1980), Groove and Countermove (2000), and others. Tickets are free, but reservations are required.

SPECIAL EVENTS
On Monday, October 3, TBDC Scholar in Residence Susan Rosenberg will be delivering a lecture on the work of Trisha Brown at the Fisher Center for the Performing Arts, slated to begin at 6:00pm. Rosenberg's forthcoming publication, Trisha Brown: Choreography as Visual Art 1962-1987 (Wesleyan Press) is scheduled for release November 2016.

NEW YORK, NY
This semester, dancers at New York University Tisch School of the Arts are creating a version of Set and Reset/Reset. In Set and Reset/Reset, dancers learn original movement material from Trisha Brown's 1983 masterpiece Set and Reset and compose a new dance using the same compositional strategies. The result is a wholly original work created by students. For this project, students will work with TBDC restager and Associate Artistic Director Diane Madden to create the dance and reimagine the original Rauschenberg designs for performance. The work will premiere December 1-3 at the Jack Crystal Theater.
