e-MOTION MAKES NYC DEBUT: April 18-20, 2025

LOVE IS IN THE AIR!

The love affair between Ava and H continues!

Ava, the neuroscientist, and H, her sophisticated AI humanoid robot, will take the stage again this April 18-20 when the historic La MaMa presents e-Motion during the 20th Anniversary season of the La MaMa Moves Festival!

Sarah and Daniel reprise their roles along with Company dancers Vanessa Martínez de Baños and Johnny Mathews folded into the production process. Save the dates for the New York City premiere of the dance-theater work co-conceived by Daniel and award-winning playwright Saviana Stanescu that explores what it means to be human in a digital age.

“Gwirtzman’s choreography is spare but rich in details, vigorous within containment. Stanescu and Gwirtzman provide a frequently dazzling hour of questions. Embodied thought. Theatre reaching past its own boundaries. What e-Motion does well is to articulate the concerns (part ethical, part dystopian) of the bond between human and AI.”
