How to Build a Universe at Curve

Set at the end of time where five people from different universes meet to create something new, the new show from Jamaal Burkmar is a celebration of creation and spontaneity. Five seasoned dancers meet, explore, and create as they build a new world for themselves, interacting in Jamaal’s signature technical and playful style of contemporary movement. An extra layer of spontaneity is added when they are joined by a local dancer in each tour location, who steps in to improvise without rehearsal or map.
