Our final performance of the season features an OBT first time commission from rising star Michelle Manzanales, who was inspired by our collective “time out” imposed by the global pandemic for her world premiere Mirror, Mirror. In high demand, Ms. Manzanales is premiering work on both coasts this season with commissions from Paul Taylor Dance Company as well as OBT. Rounding out this innovative production we are delighted to bring back two audience favorites: Darrell Grand Moultrie’s whimsical Fluidity of Steel celebrating maleness without conformity; and Bodyvox founders Ashley Roland and Jamey Hampton’s Big Shoes harkening back to that moment when we dressed in grown-ups’ clothes and imagined the vast road that stretched on ahead, forever beckoning, daring us.
