Contemporary dance company A.I.M by Kyle Abraham is celebrated as “one of the most consistently excellent troupes working today” (The New York Times).  Led by MacArthur Genius Kyle Abraham, A.I.M returns to The Joyce with a repertory program that shows his brilliance as an Artistic Director constantly innovating the industry. Abraham will serve his signature postmodern gumbo – a unique blend of modern dance styles ranging from ballet to hip hop, seasoned with human stories and social commentary, that is fueling a new movement in the dance world. This incomparable ensemble will perform Our Indigo: If We Were A Love Song, a dance exploration of love set to a soul-stirring Nina Simone soundtrack. This program features the New York Company premiere of Bebe Miller’s legendary solo Rain. Audiences will also enjoy the world premiere of Up Root: love and legacy by A.I.M alum and Princess Grace Award winning choreographer Maleek Washington. Don’t miss this dynamic mix of dance performances that masterfully showcases the range, grace, and power of A.I.M by Kyle Abraham.
