Keigwin + Company

Founded in 2003, KEIGWIN + COMPANY (K+C) creates and presents Artistic Director Larry Keigwin’s electrifying brand of contemporary dance. K+C reaches national and international audiences and invigorates diverse communities with a refreshing vision of dance that embodies a theatrical sense of wit, style, and heart. Education and community projects seek to physically engage audiences and students in movement and the choreographic process, and bring new opportunities for individuals to become more invested in dance.

K+C’s artistry combines Keigwin’s explosive athleticism with wit and musicality to create an inclusive, accessible, authentically human, and joyful experience for broad audiences across the globe. With its community-driven work, K+C encourages participants to uncover their own physicality and creativity while bolstering a connection to their communities. Critics have described Keigwin’s artistry as both accessible and exhilarating – “Mr. Keigwin injects a revivifying dose of blithe high spirits into an often rather solemn art,” wrote Jennifer Dunning of The New York Times while Deborah Jowitt proclaimed in the Village Voice “I see Larry Keigwin as a mixologist: In his works, sweet seriousness, camp, and flash assert and mingle their flavors…his concoction goes down very smoothly indeed.” In 2017, K+C expanded its reach through DanceMotion USA with a 4-week tour to Cote d’Ivoire, Ethiopia, and Tunisia. As Covid-19 shifted dance online, K+C created acclaimed virtual works in 20/21 with high-profile commissions from The Juilliard School, Paul Taylor Dance Company, Works & Process at the Guggenheim, and YoungArts Foundation. Vogue heralded Bolero Juilliard, which brought together 100+ artists, as “One of the 9 Best Ballets to Come Out of Quarantine.”

As we continue into on our third decade, we endeavor to harness our long-standing capacity to engage and inspire by extending the mission that has always been at the heart of K+C – bringing electrifying, joyful dance to the broadest possible audience – now in new ways.
