Will Rawls has performed with Tiffany Mills Company, Katie Workum, Leigh Garrett, Shen Wei Dance Arts, and Karrine Keithley, and his work has been presented at Galapagos, PS 122, and the Gershwin Hotel.

The Brian Brooks Moving Company first debuted in 1997 when Brooks self-produced his dances at the Merce Cunningham Studio. The production featured a short film of Brooks dancing at eleven different public places within eight hours; the event caught the attention of the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, who funded a second “Performance Marathon,” sending Brooks and his group to the Brooklyn Bridge, Grand Central, and the aisles of a deli.

Alethea Adsitt & Company’s core focus is to bring to the fore innovative performance territories, through the union of movement, text and visual design. Initiated from the body’s profound potential for expression, a unique movement language is unearthed.
