Gibney Company, New York City’s dynamic creation-based repertory company, brings its fearless dancers and emotionally charged storytelling back to New York Live Arts, October 30–November 1, for its annual Up Close series.

This year’s program celebrates acclaimed Swedish choreographer Johan Inger, whose work moves from  gritty, poetic intensity to luminous joy. His raw meditation Rain Dogs, set to the unmistakable voice of Tom Waits, and his audience favorite Bliss, danced to Keith Jarrett’s legendary Köln Concert, and are bridged by the world premiere of When It Was, a new work created for Gibney Company described by the choreographer as “an elegy for beauty remembered, and for what slips away.”

More than a performance, UP CLOSE draws audiences into the Company’s creative world. The series offers a rare opportunity to experience the virtuosity, intimacy, and daring spirit that define Gibney Company.

Experience Gibney Company UP CLOSE — just four performances at New York Live Arts.

“The evening will not be a story, but a journey: from earth to elegy, from memory to possibility. A meditation on what remains, and what can still be found.” – Johan Inger
