Pilobolus: Big Five-OH

The best dance company ever named after a fungus, Pilobolus has been fusing
contemporary choreography with gravity-defying contortionism and cutting-edge shadow
play since its auspicious founding, in a classroom in Dartmouth College, in 1971. For this
year’s landmark 50th-anniversary tour, the company will debut a few compositions and
re-interpret signature pieces from its 120-work repertory.
