ABOUT THE COMPANY

The Bang Group is a New York-based, theatrical dance troupe founded to honor the power of rhythm in the human urge to dance. Creating a kind of theater of rhythm, The Bang Group's choreographer David Parker, pares dance rhythm down to its essentials and builds it back up with comic enthusiasm unleashing an amalgam of tap, body percussion, vaudeville, ballet and contemporary dance that demands to be heard as well as seen. Parker and his company create highly legible dances that reach and excite diverse communities and are shaped in turn by their responses. Punctuated by pratfalls and yet tinged with mystery, these dances find an unlikely virtuosity in the rhythms of clumsiness and a shopworn valor in daily triumphs. The Bang Group dissolves dance dogma in a tide of rhythm and brings forth a compelling fusion of intellect and emotion. No conventions are held harmless.
