BODYTRAFFIC

Tue Apr 15 - Sun Apr 20

With a compelling style that reflects the “invention, attitude, and urban edge” (The Boston Globe) of its Los Angeles home, BODYTRAFFIC returns to The Joyce with a program that dives into the power of memory sparked by unexpected reminders. Whether it’s a painting, song, or sensation, the associations we make with the world around us forge lasting connections that provoke deep feelings of nostalgia. With works by Juel D. Lane, Trey McIntyre, and Matthew Neenan, This Reminds Me of You invites audiences to reflect on the profound impact of memory and celebrate how our past shapes our journey forward.
