Works & Process to Present Ryan Ponder McNamara's KINETIC GRACE

Works & Process presents Ryan Ponder McNamara's Kinetic Grace from Sunday, April 28, 2024 to Tuesday, April 30, 2024 at 7pm at the Guggenheim's Peter B. Lewis Theater, 1071 Fifth Avenue, NY. Tickets $55 to Choose-What-You-Pay. 

Initiated by artist Ryan Ponder McNamara, Kinetic Grace is a movement (some call it a cult) motivated by the faith that humankind can achieve transcendence through dance. Come join the performers in this mass for newcomers, as they induct you into the mysteries of Kinetic Grace and invite you to join the sacred revelry. We promise song, dance, and ecstatic testimony, all in the divine presence of our muse, Terpsichore.

Cast: Leilani Carr, PJ Cirino, Tess Dworman, Rawlins Echeverria, Lavinia Bruce, Michelle DellaFave, Sigrid Lauren, Ryan Ponder McNamara, Rebecca Patek, Josh Weidenmiller

Kinetic Grace was commissioned by Works & Process, and developed in Works & Process LaunchPAD residencies at Watermill Center (2022), Bethany Arts Community (2023) and The Church, Sag Harbor (2024).
