CHOREOGRAPHERS’ NOTE:
The Company is incentivized towards perpetual growth.
The Company develops relationships with politicians and regulatory agencies, lobbying for legislative language that protects their constant growth.
The Company language is parroted until fabrication becomes fact.
The Company’s profit margins are built on theft: of natural resources, human labor, and life
You don’t make a billion dollars, you steal a billion dollars.
“It’s not everyday that, even before a company finished the first piece, I think: ‘And now I have a new company to love.’” – ADF Premiere, The Herald Sun, Susan Broili
“Drop gritty, contemporary New York and European choreographers into the fast-paced, freeway world of Los Angeles, sprinkle with energetic young talent, and you get the super-fast, super-sexy, super-expressive intensity of BODYTRAFFIC.” – Dance View Times
“…BODYTRAFFIC combines the simple with the smart, the thoughtful with the visceral, the difficult with the detailed, without missing a single step along the way.” – The Calgary Herald
“BODYTRAFFIC has attracted dancers who move seamlessly from impressive ballet technique through a range of equally demanding contemporary moves, abilities that draw major national and international choreographers to create on the company.” – LA Weekly
