five two dance company at the Christ Church Neighborhood House

five two dance company

five two dance company is a New York based, woman-led collective that shares highly physical movement. We are thrilled to present an evening of contemporary dance at Neighborhood House in Old City Philadelphia, showcasing three works centered around themes of relationships, humanity, identity, and vulnerability.

Featuring six emerging performance artists, our work strives to unearth deeper understandings of physical and emotional intersubjectivity. five two's movement practice draws on the human experience balancing strength, individualism, and tension with softness, symbiosis, and malleability.

With over 100 offerings from rebellious circus, delicious dance, fearless theater and activist art to workshops, parties, and more Cannonball pushes the boundaries of live performance at four different venues this Fringe. Come as you are and stay past bedtime. Blaze your own trail at cannonballfestival.org.
