Influences at Brooklyn Academy of Music

The exhilarating possibilities of modern dance on ice. Gliding, sliding, and soaring, the performers of Montreal’s contemporary skating company Le Patin Libre transform the ice rink at the LeFrak Center in Prospect Park into an outdoor theater. Join your neighbors in a socially-distant seating arrangement right on the ice to experience the unique rush and elegance of this uncommon art form. The evening begins with a series of short works showcasing the company’s remarkable athleticism and artistic range, followed by Influences, an exploration of tension, harmony, and individualism. Throughout it all, the artists of Le Patin Libre make intricate choreography appear as an effortless act of creation.
