FOUR CORNERS (2026) - dance work
Four Corners, a dance show choreographed by Karen Stokes
Premiere: January 30-February 8, 2026, Midtown Arts and Theater Center, Houston, TX
Summary:
Four Corners is a four-part dance work by Karen Stokes. In Four Corners, life is seen as being on a threshold of possibility. Movement explores time/space widening and closing, slowing and quickening, within the four corners of the earth.
Stokes leans into the liminal, pulling back from tangibility to embrace uncertainty, transition, and spaciousness.
“The original musical score from composer Ben Morris successfully travels a number of moods for the dancers to inhabit. For a time ethereal, then more grounded with natural sounds woven into the composition. Here languid, then they’re pulsing with energy.”
-Neil Ellis Orts, The Dance Dish
