The Brian Brooks Moving Company returns to Dance Theater Workshop with the world premiere of again again. Known for his layered formal approach that mixes pop culture flair with rigorous physicality, choreographer Brian Brooks’ latest work illustrates our attempt to grab hold of the fleeting moment as it inevitably slips by. Brooks’ meticulous dedication to repetition and obsession with feats of endurance highlights his performers’ humanity as they struggle to catch the empty space of memory.
