about
Crossroads Series is a series championing radical Queer voices. Four new short works from
Pioneers Go East Collective’s series empowering multigenerational LGBTQ+ and feminist
artists in dialogue with their communities. Featuring works from our collective and friends,
including Gian Marco Riccardo Lo Forte with Anabella Lenzu; Miranda Brown and Noa Rui-
Piin Weiss; Sugar Vendil; and Gian Marco Riccardo Lo Forte with ALEXA Grae and Symara
Sarai.
These programs highlight the extraordinary diversity and range of artists across cultural
backgrounds, ages, and dance styles. By amplifying underrepresented voices and fostering
intergenerational exchange, the festival continues to reimagine what contemporary dance can be.
One of New York’s signature dance festivals, La MaMa Moves! has showcased small and large-
scale works of more than 400 emerging and seasoned choreographers since its beginning in
2005. With sustained support, La MaMa can deepen this impact and ensure that visionary artists
and their communities have continued access to this vital platform for years to come.

community workshops and public discussions.

La MaMa Moves! Dance Festival continues to support La MaMa’s commitment to presenting diverse performance styles that challenge audience’s perception of dance by featuring performance/installations, experimental film screenings & public symposiums which address dance artists’ engagement with the current political climate, as well as honoring diasporic histories and legacy, ancestral inspirations and inter-generational dialogue.
