  • World Premiere of Deep Blue Sea by Bill T. Jones
    World Premiere of Deep Blue Sea by Bill T. Jones, Featuring the Renowned Choreographer in Performance with 100 Dancers and Community Members, Opens at Park Avenue Armory this April New Armory Commission Features Visual Environment Designed by Elizabeth Diller and Peter Nigrini April 14 – 25, 2020 Bill T. Jones, work-in-progress performance of Deep Blue Sea at LUMBERYARD, 2019. Photo: Maria Baranova New York, NY – February 4, 2020 – This April, renowned director, choreographer, and dancer Bill T. Jones presents and performs in the world premiere of his monumental new work, Deep Blue Sea, at Park Avenue Armory, marking Jones’ first time performing in fifteen years. Using deconstructed texts from Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” and Herman Melville’s Moby Dick, the highly personal work explores the interplay of single and group identities and the pursuit of the elusive “we” during fractious times. The work commences with a solo by Jones and builds into a collective performance featuring 100 community members and dancers led by Jones and the Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Company. Conceived for the Armory’s Wade Thompson Drill Hall, Deep Blue Sea magnifies the vast space through a design by Elizabeth Diller of the renowned architectural firm Diller Scofidio + Renfro and projections by Tony Award- nominated projection designer Peter Nigrini (Beetlejuice, Fela!), with a sonic backdrop created by composer Nick Hallett and music producer Hprizm aka High Priest with Holland Andrews. Deep Blue Sea is commissioned by the Armory and Manchester International Festival in collaboration with the Holland Festival, and produced and developed in collaboration with New York Live Arts.
