Seán Curran Company
October 26-28, Tsai Performance Center
Friday | 7:30pm
Saturday | 8pm
Sunday | 3pm | Family Matinee

Seán Curran boasts a rich and unusual dance background. He has been a traditional Irish step-dancer, a member of the Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company and an original New York cast member of STOMP. His resume might help to explain why his work is infused with such infectious energy, wit, intelligence, and physical humor. The engagement will feature the world premiere of Social Discourse and a special Family Matinee program on Sunday.

“A stunning marriage of virtuosity and emotion. [Seán Curran] dances like a soul in free fall, furiously moving his limbs to express sadness, shame, and ecstasy.”
—The New York Times
