dre.dance happily announces the NYC premiere of our evening-length work, beyond.words.
beyond.words dives into the world of autism with both wonder and
sympathy. With movement that combines dre.dance's propulsive
choreography and interpretive actions gleaned from typical spectrum
behavior, Artistic Directors Palermo & Diggs passionately attempt to
give voice to these 'multi-sensory' individuals. Inspired by
first-person accounts of people on 'the spectrum', beyond.words
challenges common conception that the 'afflicted' want and need to
be cured, and hopes to shed light on the beauty and spirit of these
'inherently gentle, exquisitely sensitive' (Stillman) beings.
