  3. Paul Taylor Dance Company


Paul Taylor has been called “the greatest living American choreographer” (San Francisco Examiner & Chronicle). Known for its daring innovation, Taylor’s choreography combines the grace of ballet with the spontaneity of modern dance, with a keen understanding of movement and narrative that exudes athleticism, insight, and beauty. The MacArthur Fellowship recipient returns with performances of Esplanade (1975), a masterwork based on the movements of pedestrians; Aureole (1962), a classic celebrating its 50th anniversary that incorporates baroque music; Beloved Renegade, inspired by Walt Whitman and called the “best new choreography of 2008” by the New York Times; and 2006’s Troilus and Cressida (reduced), a wickedly funny piece based on one of Shakespeare’s bitterest plays. As prolific and relevant as ever, America’s most celebrated dance-maker offers his brilliant and wry views on the human condition, ranging from innocent lyricism to devastating irony to the profoundly mysterious.
