Dance Performance | Contemporary Dance Production with Magical Realism
"What makes us human?" That's the central question animating DEA x DEA, an evening-length dance work that is playful, absurd, physical, and celebratory. Drawing from Massimiliano Bontempelli's 1925 absurdist play Nostra Dea--a landmark of early magical realism--the piece interrogates how identity, particularly feminine identity, is shaped, erased, and mythologized by external forces. In the original play, a childlike protagonist transforms daily, her identity shifting with each new outfit created by a mysterious dressmaker. In DEA x DEA, this character becomes a prism through which four performers explore the roles women are expected to inhabit--roles that feel both too tight and impossibly amorphous. Through moments of whimsical play and stark disruption, the dancers expose the cyclical nature of history, the amnesia of progress, and the absurd expectations still imposed on women today. This final iteration culminates years of development, from solos to duets to ensemble works. Now distilled into its purest form, DEA x DEA embraces contradiction, movement, and metamorphosis--demanding we ask not just who Dea is, but who we are becoming.

Dance Performance | Preview Multi-Disciplinary Dance from Award-Winning Choreographer
Mammal Mountain, a multidisciplinary dance commissioned by NYU Skirball (premiere April ‘26), includes long-time collaborators: performers Eleanor Smith, Anna Adams Stark, Darrin Wright, Saúl Ulerio, and choreographer Ivy Baldwin. It takes inspiration from Ken Russell’s 1969 film adaptation of D.H Lawrence’s Women In Love, specifically Gudrun’s “dance with highland cattle”—a ritual between woman and animal, of seduction, submission, fear, sensuality, aggression. Visually, the dance incorporates mammalian hides, specifically cows—used as second skins, physical terrains, paintings, weapons, and objects of desire. Ivy Baldwin is a NY-based choreographer, performer, educator, and founder of Ivy Baldwin Dance, Inc. (est. 1999). Commissions include BAM Next Wave, NYLA, Chocolate Factory, Abrons Arts Center, Joyce Theater (Joyce Unleashed), American Dance Institute, The Philip Johnson Glass House, Russel Wright Design Center, and LaMaMa. Select awards include Guggenheim, Bogliasco and Jerome Foundation Fellowships, Gibney DiP, NYFA, LMCC, 92Y, MacDowell, Yaddo, and Movement Research. Her work has been presented by The New Museum, MASS MoCA, REDCAT, and Dance Center at Columbia College Chicago, and internationally in Germany, Romania, and Italy.
