Homo Veritas Dance Theatre

Homo Veritas Dance Theatre A contemporary ballet company based in NYC, HVDT serves as a means to the creation of dance that examines the human condition honestly and respectfully. Mr.

Matthew S. Berenbaum was first inspired to become a choreographer by a Pink Floyd song on the Staten Island Ferry early one morning during his high school years, and continued to conceive and develop choreographic ideas while in college. Shortly after graduation. Berenbaum began renting rehearsal space and gathered a few friends together with the simple aim of bringing some of his ideas to life. T

hese few friends soon became the founding members, and that rehearsal space soon became the birthplace, of Homo Veritas Dance Theatre.

PERFORMANCE ANNOUNCEMENT!! (Live until 6/22)

Some of you who follow us may know that our director, Matthew S. Berenbaum, is a graduate of the Dance Department at New York's LaGuardia High School.
Last fall, one of the teachers in that department, himself an alumnus, put together a group for alumni still working in the performing arts, and Mr. Berenbaum joined this group soon after.
The group soon began planning a virtual alumni concert, for which Mr. Berenbaum choreographed, filmed, and submitted a piece.
This piece featured Founding Associate Artistic Director Rebecca Allen, as well as 3 guest artists, and Rebecca also submitted a piece for the concert with the company she recently founded - Animus Movement (https://www.facebook.com/animusmovement).
The performance is finally available to watch at the following link:
https://vimeo.com/562618592/79c5e9d788
This link will be live for one week, after which recordings may or may not be available (this is to be determined, as far as we know).
Please watch and enjoy.
Thank you very much!

This is "LaG Alumni Concert" by LaGuardia Dance on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them.
