The always-captivating dance trio Nuu Knynez, current artists in residence at La MaMa, bring their distinctive style of performance to La MaMa Moves! About the work, the artists write: "Three black brothers expressing their journey’s embodying the art of Krump infused with butoh, as they perform movements of joy, pain, peace, trauma, liberation, and triumph within a stage series." Created and performed by Nuu Knynez: David "Twice Light” Adelaja, Tyrell “Rocka Jamez" James, and Brian “Hallow Dreamz" Henry.

BLACK BUTOH By The Nuu Knynez is an impactful experience. With this production, you can expect to receive a sense of courage and empowerment through the view of a wide perspective of movements and emotions. The Knynez movements are fluid and graceful from the moment they take the stage, immediately captivating the viewers. Technically impressive, exciting and beautiful, the Knynez move in sync. Their bodies flowing as one. It’s clearly evident that they’re telling a story with their bodies, minds, and soul. Their brotherhood of emotion and energy are seen vividly in their dance performance.

Ilaria Passeri (director) and Evelyna Dann (performer) will present the US premiere of Y, an installation/performance comprising music, sound, theater, art, and video that explores the connection between human restlessness and the anthropomorphized territory of contemporary society. Where the vastness of the city grows, diminishing the natural territory hand in hand, and where man feels the need to regenerate rather than recover the understanding between man and nature. Sound design by Stefano Zazzera. Visual and lighting design by Micke Tannemyr. Costume design and make-up by Roberta Scotton. Still photography and video by Peter Alt.

Tickets:
Adults: $30
Students/Seniors: $25
