GIMP redefines virtuosity through the collision of disability and dance.  At its heart is GIMP, a 70-minute dance theatre event featuring four trained dancers and four performers with physical disabilities: an aerialist with a strong, beautiful torso and no legs; a performer whose cerebral palsy gives him a rhythmic stride like no other; a woman whose arm sensually caresses her body in a wholly unique way because it tapers into "a smooth point."[1]  Working with this new palette of limbs, GIMP "forces our eyes and minds to perceive beauty not as a static artifact of conventional perfection but as a dynamic construct of effort and intentionality," Ivan Sygoda of Pentacle, and is "a gleaming milestone in the progress of contemporary dance and theater,"  Theodore Bale of Dance Magazine.
