Capital of Culture Present:
Trisha Brown Dance Company
Playhouse - 7 June - 8 June at 19:30 pm

Trisha Brown Dance Company comes to Liverpool for the first time.
This is a special invitation from The Liverpool Culture Company to one of the greats of American modern dance. Based in New York , a city close to the hearts
And histories of Liverpool, Trisha Brown lifts our dance experience to a new level in 2006.

Trisha Brown, the most widely acclaimed choreographer to emerge from the postmodern era, first came to public notice when she began showing her work with the Judson Dance Theater in the 1960s. Along with like-minded artists including Steve Paxton and Yvonne Rainer, she pushed the limits of what could be considered appropriate movement for choreography, and in so doing changed modern dance forever. This “hot-bed of dance revolution,” as one critic of the time called the Judson group, was imbued with a maverick spirit and blessed with total disrespect for assumption, qualities that Brown still exhibits even as she brings her work to the great opera houses of the world today.
