Dance company Pilobolus in Reno

Pilobolus, often noted as the nation’s most radically innovative dance company, performs Nov. 20 in Reno.

Pilobolus has broken boundaries in dance by departing from traditional movements in favor of its own exploratory style, derived through intense periods of improvisation and creative play. Merging wit and playfulness with athleticism and grace, Pilobolus creates fiercely modern performances that are engaging on a visual as well as emotional level and convey an inspirational sense of harmony. Dancers create shapes and forms with their bodies in a collaborative, and at times provocative, series of poses and movements that challenge the imagination. Twisted and entwined at one moment, gracefully balanced and fluid the next, Pilobolus’ dancers push their physical bounds to create the unexpected.

Pilobolus performs at 8 p.m. at Grand Sierra Resort’s Grand Theatre. Tickets are $30, $40 or $50 and are available at www.RenoIsArtown.com, at 800.648.3568 or in person with no ticket surcharge at the Grand Sierra Resort Box Office located at 2500 E. Second St.
