The 92nd Street Y Harkness Dance Center’s 2022/23 Mainstage Series continues with FLOCK’s Somewhere Between, the New York premiere of their first ensemble touring show. This hour-long work features the signature partnering, rich and complex movement, and heartfelt storytelling of co-choreographers Alice Klock and Florian Lochner, along with a stunning cast of guest artists – Liane Aung, Kevin Shannon, Robert Rubama, Emily Krenik. Somewhere Between unpacks how memory and imagination play into our reality and our definitions of self. Using myths or childhood stories, FLOCK has woven a physical and vibrant story that explores eternal truths around identity, joy and the sense of belonging.

Created through a residency hosted by the Dance Alliance of the Pikes Peak Region in Colorado Springs, Somewhere Between is now touring the US with an international tour planned for this fall. The piece features a mix of music from some of FLOCK’s favorite contemporary music artists and otherworldly lighting design by Julie E. Ballard.

FLOCK split their time between Germany and the US with their bases in southern Germany and on Whidbey Island in Washington state.
