The New York Times has lauded Stephen Petronio as “one of the few contemporary dancer makers who have created an instantly recognizable style.” He celebrates his company’s 25th Anniversary Season with the dynamic and elemental I Drink the Air Before Me, an evening-length work inspired by the power of extreme weather and storms, both atmospheric and internal. Petronio’s predilection for forward thinking popular music—his dancers have moved to Rufus Wainwright and Antony—is satisfied here by a score from the beloved young composer Nico Muhly.
