Known around the world for their radical hybrids of dance and theatre, Kidd Pivot’s creations are assembled with wit and invention and marked by a strong theatrical sensibility. Led by Canadian choreographer and director Crystal Pite, the company is unflinching in the face of challenging and complex themes of trauma, addiction, conflict, consciousness, and mortality. Pite’s bold and original vision has earned her international acclaim.
Kidd Pivot strives to distill and translate universal questions into its distinct choreographic language– a breadth of movement fusing classical elements and the complexity and freedom of structured improvisation – into artworks that connect us to profound and essential parts of our humanity.
Kidd Pivot tours internationally with critically acclaimed works such as Betroffenheit and Revisor (both co-created with playwright Jonathon Young), The Tempest Replica, Dark Matters, Lost Action, and The You Show. Since 2015, Kidd Pivot has measured its touring carbon footprint and offset over 1000 tonnes of CO2e (carbon dioxide equivalent), enabling Kidd Pivot to be one of the first carbon neutral touring dance companies.
