Lia Rodrigues Companhia de Danças | by Lia Rodrigues

DANCE | BRAZIL

“Asked about the name of the show, Lia Rodrigues says that the word “fury” can have different interpretations, such as anger, rage, and wrath. ”But it can also mean a force of positive action, an enthusiasm, an ecstasy, an impetus.” —terra

A visceral work from a revolutionary company, assembling nine dancers in a frenzied, morphing mass. A constant flow of overflowing imagination that visualizes. Nine young dancers develop a series of images inspired by the daily lives of Black people in Brazil, creating poetry from these broken abandoned nothings.

Following her US Premiere of Furia at PEAK Performances and as part of a long-overdue introduction of her work across the United States. The celebrated Brazilian choreographer makes her New York debut at BAM in a performance titled Encantado.
