Starry summer nights with @pigeonwingdance ! 🩵🌟 Opening tonight, we perform at New York Botanical Garden (@nybg ) every weekend in June (Fri & Sat, 7-9pm) as part of “Starry Nights”, which includes a drone show that swirls the iconic Van Gogh painting through the sky (plus flowers, live music, cocktails/mocktails, et al). 🎫 Tickets on the NYBG website (link in my bio). Group bundle tickets of 4 or more get a discount, so make an outing of it with friends & family! 🐦 I’m performing every weekend except for the 2nd one. The shows feature a rotating cast of pigeons @robincantrell @blue.618 @allegraherman @vicsames @arimeeee & me. 🎥 @jdisc.mov

Part 2 of the second match unlock — recent rehearsal footage of ‘Buried Giants.’ Here’s @tiff__em , dancing all creature-like with her gorgeous long limbs and spindly, spider-like movements. Her role as the Ferryman is to guide the two main characters toward something — but you’ll have to come to the show to find out whether the spells she casts are for good or for evil. 😇😈 Music: Alexis Gideon Choreography: @amyjsaunder

Poetic. Urgent. Transfixing. The oceans hold the key to our future, and you won't see them the same after experiencing "Rising". Tickets at the link in bio. Code RISEFF. Photo: @jeremykylephoto #dancephotography #contemporarydance #nycart

Meet Tiffany (she's been with Pigeonwing since 2017) . Favorite moment in "Rising": "I get goosebumps each time the last layered fragments of text come on toward the end of the piece — exhausted and sweaty, walking around the stage looking at each of my fellow dancers' faces, while a voice talks about the need to 'tell the stories of these incredible animals' and how 'we're all born wild... we're not separate from nature.' It always feels like waking up and coming together, finally, after the storms have passed." . Favorite sea creature: Turtles, of course! 🐢 .

It’s been two weeks since our sold-out weekend of ‘Buried Giants’, and we’re still feeling the magic of the world we immersed ourselves and our audiences in. 🤩🥹 We’re loving this video that @joeraffanti put together for us from our performances, and sorely missing the beautiful dancers and collaborators who helped us bring this world into existence and this story to life. A huge THANK YOU to everyone who was involved in this production and to everyone who came out to see it! ❤️ VIDEO CREDITS: ‘Buried Giants’ by konverjdans Choreography: @amyjsaunder , @movesbyj , @tiff__em Dancers: @antuanbyers , @joparks , @cheng_moves , @allegraherman , @alyssaforte , @shayehazen & the above Music: “EARTH” by Alexis Gideon & Khotomeh Lighting Design: @zombified347 Costume Design: @_something_r Videography: @lookslikesergio & @joeraffanti Editing: Joe Raffanti End-card Motion Design: @mikemartinmakes
