In Motion, In Place will take place in Fairmount Park and on the rooftops surrounding Logan Circle in a series of free performances from September 24-29:

  • Roof Piece on the rooftops surrounding Logan Circle

Performances are free, but guests are encouraged to reserve their free tickets online here.

In Motion, In Place marks the first time these works will be presented in Philadelphia, expanding on Trisha Brown Dance Company’s recent engagements with presenters worldwide to explore outdoor spaces such as the High Line in New York and the Palazzo Strozzi in Florence, Italy.
