Bolero Juilliard
Commissioned by The Juilliard School
With our lives in disruption due to the COVID-19 global pandemic, our desire to connect and create work in collaboration has been amplified, even as we remain physically separate. Choreographer Larry Keigwin has developed a new digital dance in partnership with the full community of artists from The Juilliard School, bringing together 100+ dancers, musicians, singers, actors, faculty, and alumni to create a celebration of connection and community, shaped and informed by their individual artistry. Based on K+C’s acclaimed community work Bolero, created in 14 cities nationwide and soon to be a dance film in Bolero Seniors, Bolero Juilliard will showcase the talents and creativity of the country’s best young artists across discipline in a moving portrait of art-making and shared humanity amid physical isolation and uncertainty.
Director & Choreographer: Larry Keigwin
Associate Director & Choreographer: Nicole Wolcott

“A dramatized, collective diary of a day living under the pandemic, it is also a witty, moving celebration of art as a life force.”
