Please join us for an unforgettable evening of delicious cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, performance and celebration! This year’s BASH honors celebrated choreographer Bebe Miller, a four-time Bessie Award winner renowned for her adventurous cross-disciplinary work.

Taking its inspiration from the swanky Art Deco setting of the Edison Ballroom, this year’s BASH will feature a raucous evening of cocktails and hors d’oeuvres anchored by cabaret performances featuring artists who work adventurously across and between genres that appear on the New York Live Arts stage. The evening will include appearances by members of the Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance CompanyKyle AbrahamAlicia Hall MoranJohn KellyJodi MelnickRichard Move/MoveOpolis!; and a surprise guest hostess!

Proceeds from the BASH benefit New York Live Arts and the DTW Commissioning Fund. The fund supports the creation of new works for the Live Arts stage, carrying forward Dance Theater Workshop’s 40-year history of sustaining progressive art.
