Erick Hawkins Dance Company – Upcoming Concerts
The Erick Hawkins Dance Company, founded in 1951, has been touring the world since the 1960s. With unwavering integrity and uncompromising working methods, Hawkins choreography is based on a collaboration of music, art, and dance. His dances are performed to live music, often composed especially for each dance, along with commissioned sets by artists and sculptors. Known for a fluid, effortless style of movement, each dance is energetic yet poetic, serene yet harmonious. The company continues today to develop dances based on Hawkins' pioneering movement theory.
