Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival

Jacob’s Pillow is pleased to announce that its beloved summer dance festival in the Berkshires, returning to a ten-week schedule next summer, will include week-long engagements in the Ted Shawn Theatre by Martha Graham Dance Company in the company’s 100th anniversary year (presented in partnership with the Boston Symphony Orchestra and featuring a performance at Tanglewood), Germany-based Gauthier Dance in the company’s fourth Pillow engagement since their 2015 debut, and A.I.M by Kyle Abraham presenting the U.S. premiere of a new Pillow-commissioned work featuring music composed by Jason Moran and Nico Muhly. In the Doris Duke Theatre, next summer’s programming will include week-long performances of the virtuosic duet Touch of Red by Shamel Pitts | TRIBE, the multisensory ensemble piece Weathering by Faye Driscoll, and the strikingly futuristic Ink by Huang Yi.


Additional programming will be announced in February, with Member Pre-Sale starting in March and tickets open to the public in April.
