Boston Debut

“Both stirring and chilling.”—New York Times

Founded in 2006 by choreographer Andrea Miller, a former Batsheva Ensemble dancer, Gallim Dance is a New York City-based company that has been called “gloriously quirky” by Dance Magazine and “Excellent . . . inventive . . . impressive” by the New York Times. The young company will perform Blush, an invigorating work dense with emotion and physical exertion. In this piece set to a collage of music ranging from Chopin to electro punk, Miller's visceral choreography investigates themes of intimacy, instability and the desire of the heart and body to feel strongly.

Free preperformance talks with dance critic Debra Cash:
30 minutes prior to both performances in the ICA lobby.
Free postperformance Q&A with the company: Friday, October 21.
