“The A.O. Movement Collective bring[s] a raw, vulnerable quality to their movement that’s highly arresting” —The New York Times
“Sarah A.O. Rosner and her A.O. Movement Collective communicate a profound hopelessness but also a tenderness—and queerness—that embodies the new American generation.” —Gay City News

This chronomadic performance party will feature installations and pop-up performances from 35+ collaborators and AOMC corps performers, an unveiling of the AOMC’s new interactive crowdsourcing web platform, a keynote address from Sarah A.O. Rosner, immersive experiences, audience abductions and more!

Get intimate with the Epic — it all begins here!
