NYU Skirball will present Holy, a world premiere from MADBOOTS DANCE, on Friday April 10 and Saturday, April 11 at 7:30 pm at NYU Skirball. Holy was commissioned by NYU Skirball.

Allen Ginsberg’s iconic Footnote to Howl runs through the veins of this anthemic work. As a meditation on corporeal magnanimity, choreographers Jonathan Campbell and Austin Diaz mine their athletic yet vulnerable movement language to create a world that pays reverence to humankind.

Noted for its “refreshing, often thrilling, straightforwardness,” MADBOOTS DANCE is a queer, contemporary dance company based in New York City. The hyper-physical, provocative company led by Jonathan Campbell and Austin Diaz, was named “25 to Watch” by Dance Magazine and has reached audiences nationally and internationally, mining topics of male identity and queer culture. Past presentations include New York City Center’s Fall for Dance, The Joyce Theater, and Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival, to name a few. Campbell and Diaz create compelling, original works, as well as teach both emerging and professional dancers around the nation through their unique voice and movement language. MADBOOTSDANCE.COM
