Performed on an architectural ramp installation with hills, curves and peaks, DESCENT celebrates the pleasure of reckless abandon. Obliterating assumptions of what beauty and disability can be, this dance concert takes audiences on a transformative ride.

Featuring Alice Sheppard, Laurel Lawson, and Michael Maag from the collective Kinetic Light.

The NYC premiere performances of DESCENT will include a brand new experience of audio description for dance, as part of Kinetic Light exploring the possibilities of dance as both an aural and visual art form.

Tickets start at $10.
