BodyVox entertains audiences with breathtaking physicality, striking imagery and belly-laugh inducing wit and whimsy. Innovative and quirky, this is the perfect starting place for those who haven’t tried dance before. 

Reverie, an evening-length dance piece, creates a world of beauty, strength, and delight with a bit of humor, and the human richness which all of that affords.  Both complex and refreshingly simple, Reverie is inspired by the impressionist era and builds from an overriding belief in the power of beauty.  

Conceived by BodyVox’s Artistic Directors Jamey Hampton and Ashley Roland in the months surrounding 9/11, the horror that unfolded on that day led to the creation of a show with beauty as it’s central theme.  Jamey Hampton recalls “As we gathered in the studio that day and those that followed, we came to believe that a program with beauty as its central theme could be a powerful statement:  art must prevail, humanity must prevail, culture, knowledge and freedom of expression, indeed beauty must prevail. We named the program “Reverie.” implying that this is one to sweep us up and carry us away.”

REPLAY: Following the performance, relive the whimsy of the evening with the dancers from BodyVox, as they answer your questions about how and where they find their daring inspirations.
