ABOUT THE WORK
Seán Curran Company makes its NYU Skirball debut with two works: the world premiere of PATH, a 30-minute work reflecting on the phenomenon of the Camino de Santiago — the ancient Catholic pilgrimage route across northern Spain to the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia — and Curran’s own spiritual wayfaring; and Everywhere All the Time (2018), which explores the relationship of humans with the natural environment.
ABOUT THE ARTISTS
Seán Curran’s award-winning career in the arts spans 40 years, beginning with traditional Irish step dancing as a child in Boston. His 30 dance works for Seán Curran Company are characterized by collaborations across genres, and he is a sought-after choreographer and director for opera and theatre, including productions at Glimmerglass Opera, Lincoln Center Theater, The Metropolitan Opera, Opera Theatre of Saint Louis, San Francisco Opera, and Santa Fe Opera, among others. He is an Arts Professor in the NYU Tisch Department of Dance.
Seán Curran Company’s mission is to promote the development of contemporary dance and to educate the public through innovative and emotionally moving performances and engagement programs. Founded in 1997, the company’s impeccably crafted dances offer audiences a richly poetic experience that includes the artistic vision of Artistic Director Seán Curran along with contemporary composers and visual artists as core collaborators. Based in New York City, the company has toured to over 100 venues in the U.S., Europe and Asia. seancurrancompany.com
