WORLD MUSIC CRASHARTS PRESENTS

Monica Bill Barnes & Company

Everything Is Getting Better All the Time

BOSTON PREMIERE   

“One of the wittiest young choreographers around; she can stir your heart as well as make you laugh.”—The Village Voice

Monica Bill Barnes combines imaginative choreography, intellect, and humor to create performances that pull at our heartstrings one moment, and inspire riotous laughter the next. Outrageous and whimsical, her new work, Everything Is Getting Better All the Time, combines elements of rock concert glamour, Little League goodwill, and the enthusiasm of a high school marching band. Four dancers blend explosive movement and familiar gestures to create distinct characters with a lot of heart and a touch of grit.
