A first look at MOMIX

By Megan Nachtwey, Dance Cleveland

Known internationally for presenting work of exceptional inventiveness and physical beauty, MOMIX is a company of dancer-illusionists under the direction of Moses Pendleton. MOMIX will present the extraordinary evening-length work Botanica, a spectacular piece that follows the rhythms of the seasons, the evolution of the world and the passing of a day. Fabrics, colors, costumes, projections and props create a landscape populated by the creations of Pendleton’s original, whimsical, mythical imagination. An extraordinary event not to be missed!  MOMIX in Akron is presented through a generous lead sponsorship from the Knight Foundation.

“When you go to see choreography by Moses Pendleton, artistic director and founder of MOMIX, you expect to be astonished. Botanica…has astonishment to spare.” – Nancy G. Heller, The Philadelphia Enquirer
