The Bipeds

Since its inception in 2015, The Bipeds Dance Company, under the direction of dancer/choreographer Stacy Wolfson and banjo player/ songwriter Curtis Eller, has thrived in the pursuit of genuine collaboration. Performers of various disciplines are brought together to seek out the elusive flashes of inspiration that flare up where their disparate techniques intersect.
Wolfson and Eller have devised a unique compositional approach that seamlessly combines movement, music and lyrics to create a peculiar and compelling hybrid of dance and song. They cast the finished pieces with dancers and musicians possessing the curiosity, technical proficiency and requisite disdain for boundaries to delve into one another's mediums. Musicians become dancers, dancers become singers, and unhinged howls of wild abandon are briefly and inevitably reconciled with harmony and grace.
The Bipeds made their theatrical debut in June 2016 with the evening- length, "Never Enough Better Nothing" in conjunction with Eller's rock & roll band The American Circus. Wolfson and Eller have since developed a series of music/dance duets entitled "Hypnagogiacs" that premiered in Tobacco Road Dance Productions annual concert in 2017 and they have since showcased in a variety of theaters and festivals in North Carolina and New York.
