Founded in 1989, Reggie Wilson/Fist & Heel Performance Group is a Brooklyn-based dance company that investigates the intersections of cultural anthropology and movement practices. Wilson draws from the cultures of Africans in the Americas and combines them with post-modern elements and his own personal movement style to create what he calls “post-African/Neo-HooDoo Modern dances.” The company made its Pillow debut in 1996 and has returned in several seasons since. For Moses(es), Wilson drew upon Zora Neale Hurston’s 1939 novel, Moses, Man of the Mountain as well as his travels to places such as Israel, Egypt, Turkey, and Mali.
