Amanda Selwyn Dance Theatre’s 24th Performance Season included the premiere of an evening-length work, Habit Formed,at BMCC Tribeca Performing Arts Center March 1-2. 2024 as residency artist of the CUNY Dance Initiative. Habit Formed explored how habits are created and broken in our lives. These habits can manifest strength, ease, and freedom and also create limits, boundaries, and affliction. The piece was set in a world of shifting physical structures — cages, netting, and rocks. The ultimate journey of the work was a story of discernment, unpacking how we can be empowered by intentional habits and not impaired by them. We previewed the piece at an Open Rehearsal, at Compass Real Estate, at 9 of our school partners, in a Workshop Series at Peridance, in a site-specific performance in New Paltz, NY, and on tour to East Hampton. In our 23rd Season, we were in Residency at Hofstra University and presented a preview of Habit Formed at NYU as part of their Summer Residency Series.  For our 22nd Performance Season, we premiered Threads at New York Live Arts. Threads explored what holds us together in isolation and the practice of letting go. For our 21st Season, we presented a Virtual Performance and Gala and 3 Outdoor Performances in NYC, High Falls, and East Hampton.
