UMBC presents Keigwin + Company in concert on February 15, 2006 at 8 p.m. in the UMBC Theatre.

Keigwin + Company lives to create provocative, witty and engaging dances. Utilizing a collaborative process, K+C combines physicality with theatricality, samples a variety of mediums, and, ultimately, fuses art with entertainment.

Keigwin + Company was established in 2003 with its premiere performance at the New York City’s Joyce Soho and has performed in such venues as Joe’s Pub at the Public Theater, Thalia Theater at Symphony Space, NYU/Tisch School of the Arts, Martha@Mother, Galapagos Art Space, and in the clubs Avalon and Marquee. Nationally, Keigwin + Company has been presented by the American Dance Festival, the Bates Dance Festival, Summerdance Santa Barbara, Jacob’s Pillow Inside/out, the Kaatsbaan International Dance Center, and DRA’s Fire Island Dance Festival. Recent commissions include the American Dance Festival, Hofstra University, Moving Arts Projects, California Institute of the Arts, NYU/Tisch School of the Arts, Zenon Dance Company, and Bates College.

"The kinetic delight of Keigwin's high-powered dancing is infectious, and he doesn't shy away from the 'e' word: entertainment."
—Gus Solomons, Dance Magazine

This event is sponsored by the Department of Dance and the InterArts Program.
