“It’s as if we’re being given a fleeting glimpse of the inner workings of the universe.” -The New York Times

Founded in 1971, Pilobolus has built its giant and fervent international following by consistently proving the human body to be the most expressive, universal, and magical of mediums. The company maintains its own singular style while actively collaborating with the best and brightest minds worldwide, from all conceivable professions. The results of these collaborations demonstrate time and again that movement is indeed a universal language and with vision, focus, and hard work, amazing feats can be achieved. Based in Washington Depot, Conn., Pilobolus has transformed from avant garde dance company into an international entertainment brand featured on the likes of Oprah, Late Night with Conan O'Brien and the Academy Awards. Nominated for a 2012 Grammy® Award for their work on the video for OK Go’s “All Is Not Lost,” Pilobolus melds worlds as disparate as advertising, publishing, film, and music videos without ever losing sight of its mission: to make art that builds community.
