"One of the wittiest young choreographers around" (Deborah Jowitt of The Village Voice), Monica Bill Barnes' quirky blend of theatricality, intelligent humor, and humanity yields a rare and tender eloquence. Expression and innovation shine in Another Parade, a hilarious rollercoaster set to the sounds of Bach and James Brown, plus a world premiere co-commissioned by Jacob's Pillow and created in part during a Creative Development Residency that investigates the music of Nina Simone and how costumes influence identity both onstage and off.
