Paul Taylor Dance Company

Paul Taylor Dance Company

Presented by Pittsburgh Dance Council at Byham Theater

Continuum 

Dance maker Paul Taylor continues to shape the homegrown American art of modern dance that he has helped define since he became a professional dancer and pioneering choreographer in 1954. After 60 years as Artistic Director of the Paul Taylor Dance Company, he has begun commissioning a new generation of choreographers to make dances for his company so that modern dance flourishes long into the future.

The evening presentation will include classic Paul Taylor works alongside a new work, Continuum, by former company dancer Lila York. Since her days as a starring dancer with the company, she has gone on to choreograph critically-acclaimed work for top companies such as American Repertory Ballet and The Alvin Ailey Repertory Ensemble.
