The uniquely creative Connecticut-based Pilobolus Dance Theatre has something very special planned for its annual summer season at the Joyce, a multimedia collaboration with Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist Art Spiegleman. In HAPLESS HOOLIGAN IN “STILL MOVING,” the dancers will interact with Spiegelman’s colorful artwork, animated on backdrops by Dan Abdo and Jason Patterson, with sound design by FELA!’s Rob Kaplowitz. HOOLIGAN will be part of Program 1, which also includes Jonathan Wolken’s REDLINE, Michael Tracy’s dazzling SYMBIOSIS, and Inbal Pinto, Avshalom Pollak, and Robby Barnett’s RUSHES. Program 2 consists of Wolken’s GNOMEN and HITCHED, THE TRANSFORMATION, RUSHES, and Moses Pendleton’s beautiful and sexy DAY 2, with Program 3 featuring Tracy’s LATERNA MAGICA, Wolken’s stunning PSEUDOPODIA, Matt Kent and Renee Jaworski’s CONTRADANCE (featuring music by kids rocker Dan Zanes), Barnett and Wolken’s GNOMEN, and Wolken’s MEGAWATT. On July 15 at 2:00 at the Joyce, Pilobolus will be holding a public memorial service for cofounder (with Pendleton) and artistic director Wolken, who died on June 13 at the age of sixty, leaving behind a wife and four daughters.
