IN THE BRAIN

Hofesh Shechter’s exhilarating new, full-length work for Shechter II, IN THE BRAIN, is a raw, 
electrifying dive into movement, rhythm, and collective energy. A pulsing, urgent journey into 
the depths of our consciousness—where stories dissolve, identity fades, and only the beat 
remains.

Brought to life by the fierce, unstoppable energy of Shechter II, IN THE BRAIN is a space to 
break free. To lose yourself. To surrender to the rush of movement, the weight of bass, and the 
euphoria of bodies locked in Shechter’s signature groove.

Part rave. Part ritual. Here, the dancers don’t just perform—they unleash. They embody the 
rhythm, shattering the barrier between stage and audience, pulling you into a fevered, allconsuming experience that leaves you craving more.

Developed from CAVE, a shorter work originally produced by Martha Graham Company and 
Studio Simkin, which explored nightlife and human gathering through dance and it’s
transcendental quality, IN THE BRAIN builds on this, transforming the theatre into a visceral, 
high-voltage celebration of movement, music, and pure, unfiltered energy.

"A captivating one-hour piece that is both powerful and touching." -  tanznet (In The Brain)
