In this site-specific world premiere, Ways to Now, Dorrance Dance explored the unique and enchanting environment of the Pillow grounds. These special daytime performances took audiences on a roving journey that showcased the Pillow’s campus in a never-before-seen (nor-heard) way.
This World Premiere was commissioned by Jacob’s Pillow thanks to a gift from Gerry and Hank Alpert.
