Pilobolus began as an experiment among three men and one open-minded professor in a Dartmouth College dance class in 1971.

Still evolving after 38 years, Pilobolus bridges pop culture and the cultural arts to create an unforgettable experience.

Performances include RUSHES, a mesmerizing piece combining the company's renowned physicality with its playful attitude, along with REDLINE, an examination of the beauty and futility of physical battle, offering a breath-taking display of the intense athleticism that earns Pilobolus praise by both the dance-lover and dance-novice alike
