PROGRAM:
Fearful Symmetries
Trajectoire

Diavolo Dance Theater reinvents dance, re-imagines theater, and redefines thrills. Dancers, gymnasts, and actors take movement, athletics, and daring to the extreme, creating abstract narratives through surreal tableaux. Founded in 1992 in Los Angeles by Jacques Heim, Diavolo Dance Theater creates an almost cinematic experience of powerful images that develop conceptual accounts of the human condition, utilizing everyday items such as doors, chairs, and stairways to provide the backdrop for an evening of dramatic movement.

“Heim puts his feel for props, his knack for kinetic drama and his taste for danger in the service of a metaphor, and the result is dazzling.”
