A performance designed for Park Avenue Armory’s landmark rooms, ARMORY SHOW is a reflection on questions of history, memory, the epic, and the ephemeral. Combining dance, text, and three musical scores commissioned by Moving Theater, ARMORY SHOW is a reverie and revision at the intersection of public and military space.
ARMORY SHOW is made possible, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs. Additional support provided by American Music Center Live Music for Dance Program, Cultural Services of the French Embassy, and Rockefeller Brothers Fund. Moving Theater gratefully acknowledges Park Avenue Armory for residency in association with the development of this work.
