Body Traffic Presents: Mayday and Other Works

In pursuit of the most challenging, original, and diverse choreography in the field, Los Angeles-based BODYTRAFFIC has made waves from coast to coast with its far-reaching appeal. Led by Artistic Director Tina Finkelman Berkett, BODYTRAFFIC has conquered the contemporary dance world with its stunning performers, technical mastery, and commitment to the most challenging repertoire. Bursting with cutting-edge, vivid theatricality, BODYTRAFFIC takes the stage with compelling works that embody the company’s energy, sophistication, and sheer joy in dancing.

Using the timeless music of Buddy Holly, Mayday explores the looming specter that life can be cut short at any moment. We are seemingly dancing on a tightrope that could render any of our plans useless. Yet we still dance, we still move toward love, and we still plan, create, and live as if infinity lies before us.
