US Premiere

CROWD
Conception, choreography and scenography by Gisèle Vienne
BAM DEBUT
Gisèle Vienne stops time in this hypnotic work that’s captivated audiences from Tokyo to Sao Paulo. The acclaimed French choreographer transports us to a rave, conjuring up a cinematic fever dream, a sacred ritual, and a night spent losing oneself in the crowd. The air throbs with pulsing beats from the radical EDM artists of 90s Detroit. Time ebbs and flows, capturing a moment of explosive synchronicity or slowing down to illuminate the tiniest movements, as 15 individual stories emerge and are subsumed by the group.
Showcasing Vienne at the height of her artistic power, CROWD makes its US premiere at BAM in a rush of collective euphoria and creative destruction.
