Los Angeles-based BODYTRAFFIC was founded in 2007 by Lillian Barbeito and Tina Finkelman Berkett, becoming one of Dance Magazine‘s “25 to Watch” in 2013. They quickly became known for their versatility, presenting works by a range of prominent contemporary dancemakers. Following their 2013 Pillow debut featuring works by Barak Marshall, Stijn Celis, and Richard Siegal, they returned two years later with another Siegal work.
